Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Compressing Export Dumps / WinZip
Patrice - That would be correct. If you run export interactively, the prompt
that is provided is "compress extents (y/n)".

I don't know whether this is a tangent, but I notice that on the windows platform, "compressed" exports can still get 85% compression when zipping them with WinZip.
Obviously Oracle "compressed=y" doesn't mean "compress the export file", it just means that it places all the segments contiguously in the export file.
Right?
