Depending on the computer and workload, compression and less-IO can be faster or slower than no compression and more IO. (on modern computers, the consensus seems to be that the CPU is so much faster than IO that decompression with less IO is faster. However if you have hardware doing the DMA to get things off disk and the CPU is already pegged at 100%, the uncompressed scenario will win. Similarly, compression may be slower than decompression, and for stuff that needs to be stored once and read back only once or twice (like for example temporary files in a "worflow"), the compression may slow things down to be not useful overall.....)
