Any field value over a couple kilobytes is compressed automatically;
this has been true for more than a dozen years.  You can turn that
off if you want, but it's done by default.

Hi, Tom!

I've read this section of manual, but I was wondering (problably I did not fully understand the manual, maybe too technical or just my poor english suffering here) if there is a way to force all these filed to be compressed no matter size. I actually have more than 250,000 files in database with 7Gb on size (about this amount every 6 months).

Thanks,

Edson
