I just started getting hundreds of the following messages:

/ora_archive/ptxor01/arch_log/ptxor01_1_17484.arc: -- file unchanged

It appears to only come from a failed attempt to compress an archive log
which is 

-rw-r-----   1 oracle   dba      104858112 Jul  3 04:07 ptxor01_1_17484.arc

over 100M in size

-rw-r-----   1 oracle   dba      71110623 Jul  6 07:11 ptxor01_1_17544.arc.Z


logs under 100M compress just fine.  

Using a -f switch with the compress will compress the log, but the
compressed file is larger than the original file.  I have not seen this
behavior before from compress.  Any ideas or thoughts would be appreciated.
