-------------------------------------
bq. I am working on adding the Tests and checkstyle and will upload a new patch
soon.
Sure. Thanks Ravi.
bq. The reason for leaving numbers (TWO,THREE.. etc) would be give flexibility
of using all compression levels available in zlib in compressioncodec.
+1. Sounds reasonable to me.
> Support additional compression levels for GzipCodec

> gzip supports compression levels 1-9. Compression level 4 seems to give best
> compression per CPU time in some of our tests. Right now ZlibCompressor that
> is used by GzipCodec only supports levels 1,9 and six (default).
> Adding all the compression levels that are supported by native ZlibCompressor
> can provide more options to tweak compression levels.
