Controls the compression algorithm used for this dataset. The \fBlzjb\fR compression algorithm is optimized for performance while providing decent data compression. Setting compression to \fBon\fR uses the \fBlzjb\fR compression algorithm. The \fBgzip\fR compression algorithm uses the same compression as the \fBgzip\fR(1) command. You can specify the \fBgzip\fR level by using the value \fBgzip-\fR\fIN\fR where \fIN\fR is an integer from 1 (fastest) to 9 (best compression ratio). Currently, \fBgzip\fR is equivalent to \fBgzip-6\fR (which is also the default for \fBgzip\fR(1)).

The \fBzle\fR (zero-length encoding) compression algorithm is a fast and simple algorithm to eliminate runs of zeroes.
