Actually, we've had bugs related to the handling of the chunk size in early 1.0
releases and if I remember correctly that was fully fixed only in
1.0.5. So it is
possible that your 1.0.3 sstables are cmpressed but with a ridiculously low
chunk size (like 64 bytes instead of 64K), which would amount to no
compression.

In that case then yes it is a bug, but one that has been fixed by
upgrading to 1.1.
