Some kind of performance data (space and time) would be required to 
support any change in this area.

Notice that the thread originally called for lzma support, which is 
completely at the opposite end of the spectrum of compression algorithms 
in terms of space and time, compared to lzo.  So it's not really clear 
what the requirements are in the first place.
