Out application with pgsql (but I think the problem is zeoslib) is a little slower than ms-access ! We have good results with MySQL and Firebird (using zeoslib). access ? really ? what is the size of your dataset ? i've seen an access application literally die, belly-up with like 15 minutes

In our testing Postgres came out on top, well MySql was faster if you use the non-transactional table type "MyISAM". If you use the InnoDb table type it comes out slower. All of this is very subjective depending on your querys and data set. Have you run the ANALYZE command on Postgres since you

I have tried RC4, but there's no differences My results using my configuration are : MySQL 4 is 6 times faster than pgSQL Firebird 1.5 is 3 times faster than pgSQL Are these results coherent ? May be the problem comes more from ZeosLib than pgSQL8 ---(end of broadcast)-

I use zeoslib 6.1.5 for Delphi 7. I have also tried 6.5.1-alpha. It's faster (especially with firebird). I will take a look at dbExpress. Thank you. ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
