Hi, do you mean that you share one connection between multiple threads?

Please see my replies inline. I am sure it is not 3.0 specific, 2.5 is the same. and the main issue is scalability, sequential transaction performance is actually pretty good, comparable to ESE store on windows I was comparing firebird against. but when running multiple transactions in parallel, ESE perf increased from 4 tx/sec to 26 tx/sec (128 byte/record, 200 records per transaction, 6 transaction threads on 6 cores, which I expect the best, logical cpu/ht is not very useful performance-wise), while firebird decreased. These transactions do not write-conflict with each other. The basic flow of our code is like, first the main function creates a database connection, and spawns multiple threads, passing in the database connection. Each thread does this: create a transaction using the db connection, do insertion of data, and commit the transaction. Each thread measures its own elapsed time.&nb sp; -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To: [email protected] From: [email protected] Date: Wed, 15 Jun 2016 19:04:33 +1200 Subject: Re: [firebird-support] performance issue with firebird 3.0 embedded on linux Wednesday, June 15, 2016, 5:58:39 PM, Karol B. wrote: > test without details say nothing to me > 1.

I used the monolithic time in code i.e. clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, &ts) on each thread to calculate the elapsed time. should be high resolution. > 6. Exact version of FB Firebird-3.0.0.32483-0 and 7. If on Windows, how did you go about configuring CpuAffinityMask? - which processors did you intend to set it for and what was the value you configured? It's on Linux, I read from document that multiple processors are by default enabled. but I anyway set CpuAffinityMask to 4095, but it seems no change to performance. - did you try to do this configuration whilst an engine instance was running, without restarting? No. each time I change configuration, I restart the program. HB
