I am looking at archiving and compressing the collected logs, in
preparation for uploading the entire set to the server, to meet Tom
Lane's request.

A single uncompressed log set is nearly 700Kb on my test box, but
collected and compressed using 'tar -z' it comes to about 56Kb. However,
I don't know if every machine will have GNU tar with zlib compression
available. Should I just go ahead and send individual files and not
worry about bandwidth? Or is there a better portable solution?

Thoughts welcome.

cheers

andrew
