Nothing you can do, except store the mail in compressed files like xz or whatever. All general-purpose compression algorithms rely on one basic principle: Reducing or remapping repeated data patterns. If you're getting weak compression ratios, it means your data is already compressed, or not massively repeated. Either way, you're already doing the best you can do. Note: Dedup is in fact a compression algorithm, but it's being applied pool-wide instead of at the block level, so it deserves a different name. We call it dedup instead of compression. _______________________________________________ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
