Xtreme I/O - Accelerates the I/O of your database files. Xtreme I/O takes advantage of SMP (symmetric multi processing) for applications with large data sets, reducing the time required for reads and writes.
Page Compression - By compressing data at the page level (instead of the file level), Pervasive PSQL v10 reduces application I/O. Pages are decompressed and placed in cache for reads, and compressed for writes.
Record Compression - Reduce space and I/O requirements and speed up your application. PSQL v10 compresses contiguous characters, shrinking I/O and increasing performance.
