> We have a case here where we have to store very fat cells (arrays of 
> integers) which can amount into the hundreds of KBs that we need to read 
> often, concurrently, and possibly keep in cache. Compressing the values on 
> the client using java.util.zip's Deflater before sending them to HBase proved 
> to be in our case almost an order of magnitude faster.
> There reasons are evident: less data sent to hbase, memstore contains 
> compressed data, block cache contains compressed data too, etc.
> I was thinking that it might be something useful to add to a family schema, 
> so that Put/Result do the conversion for you. The actual compression algo 
> should also be configurable.
