unpack_zlib
unpack_zlib
Columns to unpack using zlib (aka deflate, aka gunzip).
Multi-value, optional, default value is empty list of columns.
Applies to SQL source types (mysql, pgsql, mssql) only.
Introduced in version 0.9.9-rc1.
Columns specified using this directive will be unpacked by indexer
using standard zlib algorithm (called deflate and also implemented by gunzip).
When indexing on a different box than the database, this lets you offload the database, and save on network traffic.
The feature is only available if zlib and zlib-devel were both available during build time.
Example:
unpack_zlib = col1
unpack_zlib = col2
