As with any compression, how much you get depends on the size and nature of
the data. I have objects where unserialized they take 4 or 5k, and they
serialize to 1.5 to 3k, or about 2 to 1. However, for the same object
structure (which contains several nested arrays ... lots of strings,
numbers ..
Can you share your test? There is an example at
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/avro/trunk/lang/c/examples/quickstop.c
which has the right calls for using a file writer with a deflate codec
- is yours similar?

I am try to compress the avro files that i am writing, for that i am using
the latest Avro C, with "deflate" option, but i am not able to see any
difference in the file size.
Is there any special type to data that this works on, or is there any more
setting that needs to be done for this to work.
