Hi Jean-Roc,

Thanks about this hint. I am vaguely aware about this option with pg 
connections through ssh with gzip. But I did not try it. Do you have any 
pointers how to set this up?

Anyway - having this built in to our existing software without having to 
set up ssh connections would be a big plus.

Thanks,
Andreas
