Support for Users of Firebird ReleasesHi all, 

I have a Firebird stock management system with 100+ tables and 10+ clients. I 
have some cumulative queries in my Delphi program that generates reports. My 
problem is that while the queries are run (less than 5 minutes each), the whole 
system performance is poor, people complaining about the speed of the database. 
How do you deal with this ? 

Thinking about : 
1. Create a backup database and have the queries run there (backup / restore 
during the night) ? This would be the obvious option. If data for the reports 
is one day behind the real system is not a big problem.

2. In FireBird do I have some switch to lower the priority of a query ?  
select * from table –low priority mode-

some other ideas ? 


Thank you in advance , 

Tiberiu
