Did you turn on compression in TSDB?

I checked documentation and I don't think I did. Looks like it has same compressing algorithms as Clickhouse, so it should be pretty close in space requirements for old chunks.

Is there any reason why it is not turned on by default?

You can't delete arbitrary records from compressed tables, only chunks.
