Compressed folder & Query speed

CK
One way to save storage space is to put the SQL data files into a compressed
file. Has anyone got any idea how this will affect the query speed?

It appears what I'm reading is that Windows 2K3, like XP, supports what MSFT calls a compressed zipped folder. Is this exposed so I can effectively use FSO or a shell to create one of these and move some files into it and then offer it as a download on my web site? -- Roland Hall /* This information is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but without any warranty; without even the implied warranty of merchantability or...

With mysql I know how much space a row will take, based on the datatype of it columns. I also (approximately) know the size of indexes. Is there a way to know that in postgresql? Is there a way to pack (compress) data, as with myisampack for mysql? Thank you

Hi, I need to write a small Windows application (console or forms) (for Windows XP SP2 & Windows Server 2003), which will check a folder for the presence of some files, and if they exist, it will zip the files using the inbuilt Compressed files functionality of Windows (same as the Context Menu -Send to -Compressed (zipped) folder). I cannot use any other third party tool (like winzip etc.) because of some non-technical constraints.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
