Comment (by iwakeh):
I'm not in favor of one or the other solution, I just want to clarify
differences to processing other descriptors and make sure that all the
differences are intended.
Usually CollecTor's implementation determines, what is on disk; and, so
far, there are only uncompressed descriptors on disk (even though the
descriptors were received in compressed format from an authority).
In that sense, CollecTor will receive compressed log files, but there is
still the decision to also store these in compressed format on disk.
The list of options:
1. store logs decompressed on-disk and in-memory, descriptor supplies
uncompressed bytes. (no getCompressionType() needed.)
2. store logs compressed on-disk and decompressed in-memory, descriptor
supplies uncompressed bytes. (no getCompressionType() needed.)
3. store logs compressed on-disk and in-memory, descriptor supplies
uncompressed bytes (no getCompressionType(), but internal tracking
needed).
4. store logs compressed on-disk and in-memory, descriptor supplies un-
and/or compressed bytes. requires getCompressionType() for the API user to
make sense of compressed bytes.
5. ...
I think 2 is the minimal effort option currently.
