Hi, Saying that my advice is incorrect is wrong. If your db fit RAM then also with bad queries you get small disk IO or at best 0 disk IO.
I dont say that RAM must be bigger then db to work fast but no surprise if db have many concurrent users looking for different data in db then without big RAM well written queries will use big disk IO Regards, Karol Bieniaszewski ----- Reply message ----- Od: "Alexey Kovyazin (ak)" <[email protected]> Do: <[email protected]> Temat: Odp: [firebird-support] Decrease disk IO Data: czw., wrz 19, 2013 07:27 Hi Karol, According to your advice, there should be no database which work fast and wity size greater than RAM. :) Your answer is incorrect. Correct advice will be: analyze statistics for queries and optimize them with indices or rewriting.

I'm running Firebird SuperServer 2.5 at Debian. My disk is HDD and some times fbserver process waiting for IO at 99%! How can I decrease disk IO? (other than buying SSD disk) Thanks! Vanina
