I shipped gni-compression to npm two days ago. One of the first questions I got (from myself, running benchmarks at midnight): does it work on anything other than chat data? Short answer: not yet. Long answer: I found out exactly why, and it led me somewhere more interesting than I expected. After the npm launch I ran GN against Silesia — the standard general text compression benchmark suite.

State that survives a docker compose down is one of those things you don't think about, until your test suite needs it, your local dev needs it, and your CI pipeline absolutely doesn't. LocalStack handles persistence with one switch (PERSISTENCE=1) and it's a Pro-only feature. Floci ships four storage modes, all free, all in core, with per-service overrides. Pick the right tradeoff for the job.
