Would there possibly be a way, that we can compress the dump statements one by one as we send them?
I can't imagine a way to do this:
- you can not send headers to enforce download and headers to reload the script in the same time;
Why would we _need_ to send the reload headers if we are giving the client the download headers?
- you can not compress by parts as far as I know (ie compress the beginning of the dump, then append a second compressed part of the dump....).
take a look at how how 'tar xvfz' works, the kernel source is a good example if you have it handy. gzip in that case does indeed work in blocks, and I am certain we can exploit that to our advantage.
