I wouldn't say IB is as good as Oracle or SQL Server, but I think it makes for a relatively strong DB in a multi-user environment. Because of the way Mu is compiled, IB becomes a perfect candidate. I will reinstall my mu, and put IB in /user/Interbase ... I will explore it and see how much "non-essential" stuff is in there, and what could be removed.
