During a ZFS presentation I had a question from Vernon which I could not
answer and did not find with a quick look through the archives.
Q: What's the effect (if any) of only having on Floating Point Processor
on Niagara when you turn on ZFS compression?
not an expert, but most if not all compression is integer based, and
I don't think floating point is supported inside the kernel anyway so
it has to be integer based.
