gzip performance

[Francesco Bellomi <fb...@libero.it>]

Hi,

first of all, I'd like to thank all the XIndice team for their excellent work.

I'm experimenting with XIndice, and I would like to know how much the 
"gzip" option of the BTreeFiler affects performance.
Does XIndice run faster with this feature turned off? In a working 
environment where response time is more important than disk memory usage, 
would you suggest disabling compression?

Thanks in advance,
Francesco

I thought the gzip functionality had been removed, but could be wrong. It 
was causing corruption of data so it definitely shouldn't be used.
