The full fledged Firebird RDBMS is a whopping 12MB install - smaller

MS-SQL-Server, Oracle, DB2)
It's not about disk space. It's about having a database server
running all the time. Imagine everyone had your attitude, I'd have
several useless database servers running on my computer. No thanks.
i tend to agree with you and in your case, i would be wondering why each has its
own database server or why they even need one if it is as useless as you say...
why can't they query to see if there is a database server already installed and
simply create their tables as needed in the existing database??
kinda makes total sense to me but it must be too logical otherwise it would
already have been being done...
