I think it will fire update trigger, but not insert trigger. But better do some tests.

I do my table updates through an APPEND FROM in an empty copy of the table; this, of course, would fire the Insert trigger.

You can make your trigger functions dependent on a variable:

* Trigger function, saved in stored procedures,
* called from Table-Insert or Table-Update
if type glOmitTriggers = "L" and glOmitTriggers
  return
endif
