Opinion about using flate2 for compression.

Experiencing low compression factor with existing libflate crate.

I don't have a strong opinion, but from the benchmark published on the libflate's readme, they seem more or less equivalent to me.

In order to justify a change, I guess it would better to see some very good numbers or libflate to go unmaintained.

@poros, I will get some numbers as we have been using flate2 in production.
