CPU usage at user level (in seconds) for compression set 'on' is 562 secs
while that for compression set 'off' is 354 secs. As per the readings, it takes little less than double CPU time to compress.
However , the total time taken to run 250000 transactions for each of the scenario is as follows,
compression = 'on' : 1838 secs
= 'off' : 1701 secs
Different is around 140 secs.
