Public bug reported:
"perf record --help" indicates that it should support compression:
"""
-z, --compression-level[=n]
Produce compressed trace using specified level n (default: 1 -
fastest compression, 22 - smallest trace)
"""
However, when trying to use that option, one gets the following error:
"""
Error: unknown switch `z'
Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]
[etc.]
"""
