Have you evaluated alternative compressors to QuickLZ? LZ4 and Snappy both offer comparable compression speed and much faster decompression, which would seem to be a big win for read-heavy workloads.

LZ4 is on our road-map for experimentation. I could see a faster decompressor really helping when you have high-end flash storage.

Just as in our TokuDB for MySQL product, we have zlib and lzma compression available.
