John, > We have seen very similar problems in large fb dbs. After much network > troubleshooting, it wasn't network issue. More like "corrupted" db.
We have 250+ databases running at 60 client sites on 120+ servers. The databases range in size from 3GB to 80GB, and have been using Firebird/Interbase for 16 years. I can count on 1 hand the number of true DB corruptions that I have seen, only 1 corruption was due to FB/IB software. If the database was corrupted, then running the client hardware at a different location (as outlined by the OP) should have reproduced the problem with 100% consistency. It did not. So, I find your assertion about "corrupted" db to be "naïve". Sean
