Oh okay. That wasn’t clear to me immediately, sorry for that,
and as snappy was only recently recommended to me in IRC and
I wanted to initially test it, I am not familiar with it.

(My intent is to replace gzip/xz in the chain

# ssh src dd if=/dev/vg/lv bs=1048576 \| gzip -n1 | gzip -d | pv -s … | dd 
of=/dev/vg/lv bs=1048576

to allow for faster compression so that this becomes bound
by HDD I/O speed if at all possible, followed by network…
without any compression, the network is slowest (only 100
Mbit/s usually), and with, the CPU is the bottleneck for
most compressions.)

>I'll update package ASAP.

Don’t worry, take your time. If this is simply not a feature
of the package in Debian, it isn’t. (Looks like I’ll need to
backport that locally, afterwards… good to know.)

python-snappy is the only way I found to use snappy as gzip
replacement for stream compression so far; if you know any
others… feel free to mention.

bye,
