[Phpmyadmin-devel] Gzip HTTP Content-Encoding patch

[Marc Delisle]

There are some set_time_limit() in phpMyAdmin, but I don't think this is my problem, because I get
an error after 3 seconds.

Without the patch, I get my dump at the screen in 7 seconds.

Maybe I hit a memory limit in my PHP configuration.

BTW, set_time_limit() does not work when PHP is in safe mode, a user suggests in the PHP manual to
do this:

if (! get_cfg_var('safe_mode')) { 
   set_time_limit(180); 
}
