> In many situations the choice of compression for sstables is more relevant to the disks attached than to the schema and data.
> This issue is to add to cassandra.yaml a default value for sstable compression that new tables will inherit (instead of the defaults found in {{CompressionParams.DEFAULT}}.
> Examples where this can be relevant are filesystems that do on-the-fly compression (btrfs, zfs) or specific disk configurations or even specific C* versions (see CASSANDRA-10995 ).
