Firebird Security and Performance

I am using Firebird since last 2 years from 1.5 version. The latest version that i am presently using in Firebird 2.1.0 Super Server. Before this I had never used any open source Database, though there are lots of Databases available like
SQLite
Postgres
MySQL
etc..
Being a file based RDBMS, i have seen very good performance in Firebird.
though we are using firebird in our company there are lots of conflicts in mind of developers in our company, so i decided post a comment on Firebird Security and Performance.
Lets start with performance..
When you install Firebird server with default installation option it will install it as a Super Server, with some default page size. page size plays a very vital role in the performance of Firdbird Database.

coming soon.....
