Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-3725:
---------------------------------------

Mike: This his somehow opposite to the last comment:

bq. I only turned packing on for one thing: the Kuromoji FST (shrank by 14%, 
272 KB).

vs.:

bq. I turned off packing for Kuromoji, since the JAR actually got larger 
(despite FST getting smaller)... strange.

What's going on? Does this mean the FST and the TokenInfoDict$fst.dat file was 
smaller, but the resulting JAR file bigger - can be a gzip compression problem? 
I can only repeat Simon: https://www.destroyallsoftware.com/talks/wat ;-)

As you wanted to enable this because of Kumoroji and now don't use it at all, 
is there any use-case in Lucene using the compaction?

I am just confused!

P.S.: Does this change FST file format again?
