I've heard from two different and unrelated sources that Firebird corrupted data for them; the only way out was with backups. They didn't have problems with PostgreSQL, so I guess that make it unlikely that the problem was hardware issues. I'm also told that Firebird's numerical datatypes handling is horrible. I don't have personal experience with it though. -- Alvaro Herrera (<alvherre[a]dcc.uchile.cl>) "Crear es tan dificil como ser libre" (Elsa Triolet) ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
