So why don't we use LZ4? +1 Agree though, I think there're still patent issues there. regards, -- ---- Takeshi Yamamuro NTT Cyber Communications Laboratory Group Software Innovation Center (Open Source Software Center) Tel: +81-3-5860-5057 Fax: +81-3-5463-5490 Mail:yam

[HACKERS] Improve compression speeds in pg_lzcompress.c

, the compression speed overcomes those in gzip and bzip2. Anyway, the compression speed in lz4 is very fast, so in my opinion, there is a room to improve the current implementation in pg_lzcompress. regards, -- Takeshi Yamamuro NTT Cyber Communications Laboratory Group Software Innovation C
