Hi,

I saw that to enable server/client protocol compression I can start mysql with the "-C" option. Is there a configuration keyword to write in my.cnf to enable server/client protocol compression?

Yes. In general, most command-line options can be written into the options files (and dashes and underscores are interchangeable by the way, so you will see people referring to both option-name=val and option_name=val). For example, if I add a line

compress

to the [mysql] section in /home/baron/.my.cnf, and then connect and type 'status', I see a line in the output that says

Protocol:               Compressed

That line is not there unless compression is enabled. I could add the same option to various sections in /etc/my.cnf as well; probably the best place to put it is in the [client] section.

Cheers
Baron
