Statistics:
Using the samples of the dbengine unit test.
The number of samples generated are 184549376 (about 185 million).
Keep in mind that these are incremental values, that are optimal for gorilla compression. However it is prominent that gorilla pages are compressed much higher than raw samples.
In practice, Netdata can achieve 0.6 bytes per sample on the second row (Array 32-bit with LZ4). We need to see in practice what is going to happen with the last one!
Also, the unit test runs faster with gorilla. I guess Gorilla improves significantly the memory bandwidth required or the CPU cache efficiency.
