I've been playing around with COPYing large binary data, and implemented a COMPRESSION transfer format. The server side compression saves significant bandwidth, which may be the major limiting factor when large amounts of data is involved (i.e. in many cases where COPY TO/FROM STDIN/STDOUT is used) In addition, a progress notification can be enabled using a PROGRESS <each n lines> option.

I tested this with a table, containing 2000 rows with a highly compressable bytea column (size 1.4GB, on-disk 138MB). Numbers are as follows (8.2 HEAD psql):
pg_dump -a -F c -t              652s, 146MB
\copy TO /dev/null              322s
\copy TO /dev/null binary       24s
\copy TO /dev/null compression  108s
\copy TO /tmp/file binary       55s, 1.4GB
\copy TO /tmp/file compression  108s, 133MB
\copy TO STDOUT binary|gzip -1  69s, 117MB

So using the plain text copy has a large overhead for text data over binary formats. OTOH, copying normal rows WITH BINARY may bloat the result too. A typical test table gave these numbers:
COPY:           6014 Bytes
BINARY:         15071 Bytes
COMPRESSION:    2334 Bytes

The compression (pg_lzcompress) is less efficient than a binary copy piped to gzip, as long as the data transfer of 1.4GB from server to client isn't limited by network bandwidth. Apparently, pg_lzcompress uses 53s to compress to 133MB, while gzip only needs 14s for 117MB. Might be worth to have a look optimizing that since it's used in tuptoaster. Still, when network traffic is involved, it may be better to have some time spent on the server to reduce data (e.g. for Slony, which uses COPY to start a replication, and is likely to be operated over lines <1GBit/s).

The attached patch implements COPY ... WITH [BINARY] COMPRESSION (compression implies BINARY). The copy data uses bit 17 of the flag field to identify compressed data. The PROGRESS <n> option to throw notices each n lines has a caveat: when copying TO STDOUT, data transfer will cease after the first notice was sent. This may either mean "dont ereport(NOTICE) when COPYing data to the client" or a bug somewhere.

Andreas
