I have a forum that allows users to enter large amounts of text along with (disinfected) html (and / or markdown) and links, etc. Everything is sanitized and checked before it is stored in the database.
It would be nice to use gzcompress . I heard that this is bad if you are going to look for this text. Do I have to compress the content before saving it to the database and use only the title and tags to search, or does it not matter?
