There is compression in the protocol, MyISAM and InnoDB. For the binlogs there is already an feature request: Bug #46435 If I understand this correctly the request is to *only* compress BLOB/TEXT columns in the protocol and in the binlogs, but not in the tables?

My request is to compress on the client side and remain compressed on the server side. However, colleagues have begun working on a large change to add support for dynamic columns which will benefit from compression for LOB columns but only for data on disk as they need to see the data in many cases. So this request can be closed while they figure that out.
