After some more hacking, I have been able to come up with a patch that is able to compress blocks without the page hole, and that keeps the WAL record length the same as HEAD when compression switch is off. The numbers are pretty good, CPU is saved in the same proportions as previous patches when compression is enabled, and there is zero delta with HEAD when compression switch is off.
Here are the actual numbers:
