>From your amplot, it doesn't seem as if you're network bound, so sending
uncompressed data over the wire shouldn't be a problem; otherwise I'd
have recommended you try `compress client'.  You might still want to
compress on either side, client or server, in order to cut down on
holding disk usage.  In any case, make sure you don't mix hardware and
software (client or server) compression.  (Unless you have an LTO drive,
which does cope nicely with already-compressed data.)  This point has
been discussed several times already on the list, you'll find all the
details in the archives.
