The biggest problem I found with the ODBC driver for Squeak is that it uses FFI and it locks the complete VM during the function invocation. In ODBC, queries are synchronous, so, if you have a website with multipleusers, and someone sends a query, it is likely the complete vm will be locked until it finishes.<br>
<br>You can see what I am talking about in my slides: <a href="http://www.slideshare.net/esug/squeak-dbx">http://www.slideshare.net/esug/squeak-dbx</a><br><br>There I compare both drivers. I am not an ODBC expert, so if someone think that that's incorrect, please let me know.<br>

<div>> Took your all’s advice and switched to the ODBC driver. Works well !<br>

</div>Well, is your codebase but I would like to know why SqueakDBX isn't good<br>
enough for you. AFAICT SqueakDBX is being maintained currently. Haven't<br>
seen much about ODBC in this lists in the past 3 years.<br>
<br>
Anyway, if it fits to your project then that's is enough.<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>
