How about fast loader api ?

Pg has COPY.

Last time I examined FB (the release prior to 1.5 - 1.02 I think), it
did not support any such feature.

To be fair - FB prepared statements were considerably faster than the
equivalent Pg ones, but faced with loading (say 10,000,000 rows or so)
Pg using COPY was more that twice as fast as FB using prepared
statements....

best wishes for the flames

P.s : I posted the results of this evaluation to the FB list at the time
... without much response...
