Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-15881:
----------------------------------------
+1
I tried this once with LZMA, see HBASE-2987. We had trouble with LZMA specifically because
it is a super slow algorithm, HBASE-2988 was an attempt to address it. Bzip2 should compress
significantly faster in comparison. Even so 2988 would mitigate.
> Allow BZIP2 compression

> BZIP2 is a very efficient compressor in terms of compression rate.
> Compression speed is very slow, de-compression is equivalent or faster than GZIP.
