Hi!

I'm running IB 6.01 SS and when i connect to my database on linux machine
from windows machine everything is
running very slow...

NOTE: I did backup of my database on windows machine running local
interbase.
Then i've copied database to linux and did restore from windows machine
through IB Console on linux machine. But the restore was very slow and
now when im using the database i get data very slow.

Anyone can help me? Maybe there is a problem in network connections (but
file transfer through samba and ftp work ok!)?

Best, Rok!

If you read the IB6 docs you will find a chapter called "Understanding
pittfalls under Linux" or something like that.

The writer explains that Linux uses the Nagle algorythm which delays the TCP.

In the same chapter you can read about how to write a simple C program that
will disable the Nagle algorythm just for IB.

According to the writer the Nagle algorythm makes connections between
Windows-Clients and Linux servers slow down to 1/3 !!!

Så...GET THE DOCS and DIG into them!

Go to www.interbase.com and DL the documentation (BTW it's about 10 Mb!!)
