Hi!

Look at firebird.conf for the parameter WireCompression.

Hello Carlos Thank you for your answer. In your article you has written about the benchmark with and without compression. How you did that? You have "FB 3 padrao" and "FB 3 compressao". If I want to compare FB 3 against MySQL, Postegre, or whatever: how I can have compression enabled or disabled? Thanks in advance. Greetings. Walter. On Sun, Sep 27, 2015 at 8:33 PM, 'Carlos H.

I guess you are talking about data compression on the database file, right? If so, afaik, some "new" algorithms are being tested/benchmarked and may be available in FB in the future, resulting in a better compression than the actual "RLE", but I guess it will not be in FB 3.0 Carlos Firebird Performance in Detail - http://videos.firebirddevelopersday.com www.firebirdnews.org - www.FireBase.com.br According to this (very good) news, http://www.firebirdnews.org/firebird-3-protocol-benchmark/ Firebird 3 can have compression of data. Excellent!!! However neither in the above page neither in the "Firebird 3.0 Release Notes" http://web.firebirdsql.org/download/prerelease/rlsnotes/Firebird-3.0.0_Beta2-ReleaseNotes.pdf says how to compress data. Just that was implemented by Alex Peshkov. So, the evident question is: How to have data compressed? Of course, I am talking about Firebird 3. Greetings. Walter.
