Hi all, I wonder if the current Postgis-Provider somehow supports or would support compression during data-transfer between the QGIS-client and the remote Postgis-server. In my experience, data transfer across slower connection (DSL, cable) is often rather slow.
Would there be, technically, a way to accelerate data transfer over slower network connections? I also remember that Sandro Santilli once suggested a keyword substitution parameter for the psql provider so one could use simplify based on map resolution/map scale. This should also help to speed up data transfer on slower connections (http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/qgis-developer/2010-May/009923.html) - unfortunately noone answered to his mail. I think the proposal would be interesting to follow.
