Hi.
I've looked at LKCD and seen that they have a provision for compressing the pages which are written. Ideally, I'd like to see us sharing code because I reckon there's a fair bit in common between the two projects. For the moment, though, I haven't seriously considered implementing compression. I've just been concentrating on getting things as stable as possible under 2.4 (given that there's no driver model there), and beginning to seek to port the changes to 2.5. Perhaps compression could be added later, but I am worrying about the basics (getting the pages saved in any form!) first.
