With such function you could choose you compression algorithm and
compression level

Not that I'm aware though you might look at pgcrypto. Good crypto has to
compress first so there may be a possibility
Hi everybody,
I'm looking for using zlib function directly in the database :
Example : a function "zipit" that would take a bytea as argument and
returns a compressed bytea
and an "unzipit" that would take a compressed bytea as argument and
returns a uncompressed bytea
I'm sure it's very easy to
