Hi, Andrea,

if you aren't using prepared statements, it doesn't know that the data is
binary and it will "kick back" to the standard encoding (with a lot of
"\001"-like in the text).  It will work, but you are at approximately 300%
overhead.

As mentioned, above, I believe it works for PostgreSQL 8.2+ (December 2006).

I did take a look at TWKB, but for GeoGig purposes, the loss of precision
is a problem.  However, I am planning to look into it - it makes huge space
savings when you are looking at already-reduced-precision geometries.

I was also going to look at TWKB-like lossless encoding
(ie. Double#doubleToLongBits() and then using a TWKB-like int-diff
encoding).  However, it's likely better to just LZ4 the WKB.  When I do the
testing, I'll let you know what happens.

Either way, encoding TWKB as real "binary" (wrt Base64) will be another big
win.

Thanks,
Dave
