How to enable automatic compression when loading empty table

Submitted by informix-funfacts on April 16, 2012 - 23:36

Loading an empty table with compressed data is not trivial. In order for Informix to build the compression dictionary, the table must contain some data but in the case of an empty table, there is no data.  To help solve this problem, we can utilize the database scheduler to monitor a specific table such that when it contains enough rows, a compression dictionary will be built so that the remaining rows inserted into the table will be compressed.
