Interesting. I have a server using SSD with the same I/O stats, but the server 
does not perform very well. All efforts to optimise have yielded result below 
expectation..

I also like to share my experience with FB 2.5 on Win 64.

I took a different path to optimazed FB performance.

And these are the main setting in my db
- Page Buffers = 1024
- DefaultDbCachePages = 0

I set these parameters to its min value because Firebird database is placed on 
a RAM disk. 
I predict my database size won't exceed 64GB and also I can upgrade CPU RAM up 
to 128GB.

With those setting, you have SC architecture with share cached like in SS.

CPU has a UPS and backup runs 3x times a days. It has been runs about 3 years 
without serious problems.

I don't know how its speed compared to database on a disk, but it is very fast. 

Just for raw info, on SSD(sata 2), random read 4K +/- 18 MB/s, random write 4K 
+/- 52 MB/s. 
On RAM, random read 4K +/- 1061 MB/s, random write 4K +/- 770 MB/s.
