> Project: Flume

> Components: File Channel
> Affects Versions: v1.4.0, v1.5.0
> Reporter: Abraham Fine
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: v1.6.0

> Attachments: compress_backup_checkpoint.patch,

> 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.
