I just installed 2009.06 and found that compression isn't enabled by default when filesystems are created. Does is make sense to have an RFE open for this? (I'll open one tonight if need be.) We keep telling people to turn on compression. Are there any situations where turning on compression doesn't make sense, like rpool/swap? what about rpool/dump?

In most cases compression is not desireable. It consumes CPU and results in uneven system performance.
