Good to see more in the compression offload space. Several years ago we ended up running a custom gzip softcore on an FPGA (I believe) co-located on a NIC to get somewhat better gzip compression performance than software. (We were pretty short on PCIe physical capacity in that model.) Dealing with the gzip core vendor and the FPGA vendor (both in wildly different timezones) was a little unpleasant.
