Hey There, This is interesting... thanks for sharing this. If you are storing in MEMORY_ONLY then you are just directly storing Java objects in the JVM. So they can't be compressed because they aren't really stored in a known format it's just left up to the JVM.
To answer you other question, it's possible that serializing doesn't provide a big space savings for your objects, especially if you are serializing mostly primitive types. It depends a bit what the type of the object it is. One thing is, it would be good to register all of the object types you plan to serailize in Kryo, otherwise you end up with some overhead: http://spark.incubator.apache.org/docs/latest/tuning.html But if you are only serializing simple types these (I think) get registered automatically.
