Hi all,

I'm playing around with Postgres, and I thought it might be fun to experiment with alternative formats for relation blocks, to see if I can get smaller files and/or faster server performance.

Does anyone know if this has been done before with Postgres?  I would have assumed yes, but I'm not finding anything in Google about people having done this.

Thanks,
Christian
