You didn't refute it technically. Are you saying the compression shrinks the data down to 2% on average? If the compression only makes the data 10 times small

If the compression only makes the data 10 times smaller (I think I'm being generous with that ratio), it's still 5 times larger than the others.
- PaulWaldman 6y agoCompletely anecdotal, but I went from 50B to 2B per point using the compression feature. Mind you this is for slow moving sensor data collected at regular 1 second intervals. Prior to the compression feature, I had the same complaint. Timescale strongly advocated for using ZFS disk compression if compression was really required. Requiring ZFS disk compression wasn't feasible for me.
