Miscellaneous proposals
1. Directory compression.
Gzip would be easier to work with than zlib; bzip2 would result in smaller
data lengths. [Concretely, we're looking at about 10-15% space savings at
the expense of 3-5x longer compression time for using bzip2.] Doing
on-the-fly gzip requires zlib 1.2 or later; doing bzip2 requires bzlib.
Pre-compressing status documents in multiple formats would force us to use
more memory to hold them.
