[netcdfgroup] If a compressed dataset is on a THREDDS server, where is the uncompression done?

Hi,
Here's a question from a user of Ferret software, which is built with netcdf4 libraries. When opening and reading data from a THREDDS server, where the data is in netcdf-4 format, using compression, where does the decompression takes place:

- at the THREDDS server and the uncompressed data are delivered over the web, - at the local machine, the compressed data are delivered over the web and are uncompressed at the local machine?
