Firebird 2.5 Classic Server uses 47% more memory than 2.1.5 when caching 
metadata
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: CORE-3560
                 URL: http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/browse/CORE-3560
             Project: Firebird Core
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Engine
    Affects Versions: 2.5.0
         Environment: Windows family
            Reporter: Jesus Angel Garcia Zarco


When the user connects to my application, executes one stored procedure to 
register the user login. This stored procedure update one table that force the 
load of most of the metadata in memory.

The difference is that while Firebird 2.1.5 uses 57100 Kb, Fb 2.5.1 uses 84100 
Kb, that is a 47% more memory than 2.1. once executed the procedure and 
starting to work with the application, the memory consumption increases in 
parallel. That implies that for 200 users the less memory needed for 2.5 is 
near 16 Gb, while for 2.1 is near 11 Gb that is a big difference.

That implies that classic server will use per connection so much memory. I 
don't know if is a bug or not, but the difference is so much. If classic server 
is for complex enviroments with high load, then  

Steps to reproduce the issue: Connect to the database and execute procedure 
usuario_entrada( 0, '', 'STATION01', '' )
