Forwarding some simple benchmarks, just to peek your curiosity.
Very interesting results.

linux kernel source, (239M)

time tar xf linux-2.6.20.3.tar

|compression  |time-real  |time-user |time-sys  |compressratio
--------------------------------------------------------------
|lzo          |6m39.603s  |0m1.288s  |0m6.055s  |2.99x
|gzip         |7m46.875s  |0m1.275s  |0m6.312s  |3.41x
|lzjb         |7m7.600s   |0m1.227s  |0m6.033s  |1.79x
|off          |7m26.735s  |0m1.348s  |0m6.230s  |1.00x

this test was done an an ancient suse 9.1 box, fuse 2.5.3, 1,25 GB RAM
(1 gb
in use for other apps), 2x80gb 3ware raid1

first (vague) conclusion:
gzip compresses best, lzo is fastest and it seems that fuse (or
whatever) is
the real bottleneck - at least not cpu or i/o

after waiting for so long - 2 additional compression schemes for zfs - in
one day!

thanks ricardo and thanks eric for making this !

so, now someone willing to implement bzip2 compression ?
:D

regards
roland

ps:
maybe someone likes to test this on a newer system? i have no suiteable
around here for now - maybe later.....
