Adrien Grand commented on LUCENE-9843:
--------------------------------------
I would have preferred to remove the compression option by making some minimal
compression required, but since this is proving controversial I'm fine with the
proposed plan as I care more about removing the option than I care about
keeping compression.

> Key: LUCENE-9843
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-9843
> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Adrien Grand
> Priority: Blocker
>
> Options on file formats add complexity and put a big tax on
> backward-compatibility testing. I'm the one who introduced it LUCENE-9378 but
> I would now like to think about what we can do to remove this option.
> For the record, compression was initially introduced because some binary
> fields have so much redundancy that it's wasteful not to compress them at
> all. But unfortunately, this slowed down some search workloads and we decided
> to introduce this option as a way to let users choose the trade-off they want.
