That is correct. I was asking if we made an obvious mistake, and most people are saying no. Also, base64 is less easy to compress because input bytes span base64-bytes, so "dog" might encode differently depending on where the two high bits are stored, while hex alway encodes "dog" the same way. -- Bruce Momjian <br...@momjian.us> http://momjian.us EnterpriseDB http://enterprisedb.com + As you are, so once was I.
