<pre wrap="">we are indeed using MySQL as the database backend. As I don't know the
internal table organisation of CDash, I am wondering, if compressing
whole rows wouldn't slow down accesses
to the tables very much. Wouldn't it be better to only compress the
column containing the text output? This could be done in CDash upon
access of this column only.

I played with the compression this morning and using zlib to compress
the test output we can get up to 8 times compression. I think this is
the way to go. I'm going to implement that soon.

that would be really great. I expected that the compression ratio would
be rather high, as it is<br>
pure ASCII (or even XML?) which is compressed.<br>

<pre wrap="">I already tried to put a feature request in the bug tracker, but the bug
tracker, which is linked from <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.cdash.org">www.cdash.org</a> does only contain category
entries for CMake, CTest etc., but not for CDash.
So I thought I'd ask on the mailing list first.

There is a project CDash on <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.cdash.org/Bug">www.cdash.org/Bug</a>. We probably want to move
the bug to the CDash project.

Now I found the reason: I looked at the categories, but didn't notice,
that you have to switch the project, not the category.<br>
I entered a feature request, it got the number 10027.<br>
