> The documentation claims that Avro files can be compressed as well:
> {quote}
> By default, data is not compressed. You can compress your data by using the
> deflate (gzip) algorithm with the -z or --compress argument, or specify any
> Hadoop compression codec using the --compression-codec argument. This applies
> to SequenceFile, text, and Avro files.
> {quote}
> This is not true as the AvroOutputFormat currently doesn't support
> compression.
