Brock Noland commented on FLUME-1952:
-------------------------------------

I don't think there is any reason not to compress with Snappy. It's so fast I 
highly doubt it would hurt performance.

> Compressing writes can improve the I/O cost of the file channel, at the 
> expense of more CPU time. If the event sizes are "big enough" then the I/O 
> time improvement might be worth it.
