Hi all. Recently wire compression was implemented by Alex. It uses well known zlib library. On Linux zlib could be installed as a standalone package and there is no problems with its presence nor for Firebird users, nor for those who going to build Firebird. But on Windows i found no common

Recently wire compression was implemented by Alex. It uses well known zlib library. Have you guys considered LZ4? https://code.google.com/p/lz4/ It is getting very popular in the big-data / NoSQL area for both, compressing data on disk and over-the-wire. Regards, Thomas On Linux zlib

Has anyone done any performance studies on zlib? Decompression is OK, but compression is very, very CPU intensive. I did a study a while back to investigate using zlib for blobs. The short answer is that it was much, much faster to read the extra pages than pay for zlib compression and
