Yeah, I was wondering about that. Not quite sure it's worth adding
cycles to defend against though. I don't buy the "security" aspect,
since there's no plausible route for an attacker to inject corrupted
compressed data unless they already have full access to the database.
The "maybe core dump" argument is a bit stronger, but not very much so.
