That's weird: good/bad_compress are accounted, but it seems to me that
they are to never used in any way. If so, there is indeed no reason to
keep them.

Your patch doesn't change the way pages_stored and compr[essed]_size
are accounted. What does your patch change that allow us to calculate
the "real" compression ratio?

Wouldn't it be more practical to report the original and compressed
data sizes using the same units as it is currently done?
