So the advantage of using SW compression instead of
HW compression is that we can selectively choose on which DLEs compression
should be enabled and where it is useless (or even counter-productive).
In situations where CPU utilization is not a concern, this may be the preferred
approach, as we should expect a better tape space usage.
Is it correct?
