Your comparison is unfair. A .gz file is COMPRESSED by gzip and not in any way human readable without uncompressing it first. How big is the result if you compress the sqlite file through gzip?
-----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: sqlite-users [mailto:[email protected]] Im Auftrag von Peng Yu Gesendet: Mittwoch, 10. April 2019 07:39 An: SQLite mailing list <[email protected]> Betreff: [EXTERNAL] [sqlite] compressed sqlite3 database file? I have some TSV table in .gz format of only 278MB. But the corresponding sqlite3 database exceeds 1.58GB (without any index). Is there a way to make the database file of a size comparable (at least not over 5 times) to the original TSV table in the .gz file?
