Hello Everyone.
Starting from the current version (5.11), the built-in IBProvider client for Firebird (fb.direct) has support for connection data compression.
To enable compression, just specify «remote:wire_compression=enabled» in the connection string.
By default, IBProvider uses a built-in implementation of data compressor algorithms.
