             Summary: Optionally Compress Backup Checkpoint
                 Key: FLUME-2401
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-2401
             Project: Flume
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: File Channel
            Reporter: Abraham Fine
            Priority: Minor


File Channels with a large capacity create big checkpoint files. If the channel 
is mostly empty when the backup checkpoint is written the file will be large 
but mostly '0'. It would be nice to be able to optionally compress the 
checkpoint to reduce disk utilization for the backup checkpoint.
