v.23.6New Feature
Codec DEFLATE_QPL Gains Non-Experimental Status with New Server Setting
Codec DEFLATE_QPL is now controlled via server setting "enable_deflate_qpl_codec" (default: false) instead of setting "allow_experimental_codecs". This marks DEFLATE_QPL non-experimental. #50775 (Robert Schulze).
Why it matters
This change promotes the DEFLATE_QPL codec from experimental status to a stable feature, providing users with a dedicated and straightforward server setting to enable or disable it. This improves configurability and clarity for users wanting to leverage the DEFLATE_QPL compression codec without enabling all experimental codecs.How to use it
To enable the DEFLATE_QPL codec, set the server configurationenable_deflate_qpl_codec to true. By default, this setting is false. This replaces the previous requirement to set allow_experimental_codecs to true.
