Hi Robert You mention using MySQL or PostgreSQL for recovery log. Are there any problem if we change the recovery log to use PostgreSQL at same host (that Sequoia connected to)?

MySQL by contrast can perform 2000 or more updates per second on a single thread without difficulty. You correctly noted, by the way, that there is a single connection. We use either MySQL or PostgreSQL in the commercial products based on Sequoia. The recovery log is written asynchronously, so it does not at least in theory have too much impact on SQL update rates. However, Hypersonic is pretty slow and uses a lot of memory when you have large quantities of data. Switching to an external database should speed things up at least a bit.
