What about: https://people.freebsd.org/~seanc/postgresql/scale15x-2017-p...

16k record size 2x amplification and still (?) allows compression w/ lz4

We tested this extensively a few years back. We saw a compression ratio of ~1.9 with 8k recordsize/lz4, ~2.7 with 16k/lz4, and now ~5.5 with 64k/zstd.
