When I use NewWayService 2, sometimes, it can be very slow


The information in this article applies to :
NewWayService 2.x (English)
NewWayService 2.x (French)


Description
A new technology called Hyper-Threading is available since a few months with some types of processors such as Intel Pentium 4 processors. This technology allows to increase performances of some applications.

NewWayService 2 is compatible with this technology. However, NewWayService 2 uses the database engine Interbase 6 (Open Source version) which is not compatible with Hyper-Threading technology. So, when Interbase (Interbase server only) is installed on a computer with Hyper-Threading enabled, in some cases, performances of Interbase can be decreased.

There is no problem on the client side, when only NewWayService 2 and the client part of Interbase is installed.


Solution
If you experience performance problems when accessing an Interbase server, to correct it, disable the option Hyper-Threading in the system bios of the computer, where Interbase server is installed.
