Hello,

I would like to add one more point to this.

Everyone seems to agree that compression is useful for reducing load on the disks and the disagreement is about the impact on CPU utilization, right?

What about when the compression is performed in dedicated hardware? Shouldn't compression be on by default in that case? How do I put in an RFE for that?

I respectfully disagree somewhat.  Yes, compression shuould be a
choice, but I think the default should be for it to be enabled.

I agree that "Compression is a choice" and would add :

  Compression is a choice and it is the default.

Just my feelings on the issue.
