It makes size smaller: both index and data files are text files so compression is very effective. All distributions I've checked compress data files, some compress both data and index. Probably all desktop users want dictionaries to be compressed because modern cpu's are really fast in decompression and even on my 4-years old notebook it takes less then second... But still there are environments where it's better to keep dictionaries uncompressed. That's why I want to keep this feature optional. -- Peter.
