Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: Export - Compress
That would be very system-dependant. Compression is highly cpu-intensive.
If you have the system to yourself, that won't be a bottleneck, but on a
busy system, it could slow things down.
With compression off, you require more disk i/o. But if your disk
controller has lots of buffering, this may not be a bottleneck.
Basically, the answer is non-deterministic, and the only way to find out is
to test in your environment.
