Do you think not to merge scomp? Please let me know your overall
plan about this.?
I'm fine with a driver-side scomp interface.  But I'd rather
avoid having yet another user-side compression interface in the
form of scomp if we can avoid it.
I mentioned that there are usecases that scomp is needed for performance,
it means that we can't avoid it. Or do you think this usecase differently?
I understand it's rather pain that we have two interfaces but scomp interface
is just wrapping layer to handle various S/W compression algorithms and
implementation is not that complex. I guess it doesn't cause much
maintenance cost.

Thanks.
