Any numbers for overall benefit at the application level?

Yeah, I've been skeptical that it would be a good thing for your
situation unless the lower target only applied to more aggressive
compression, not out-of-line storage.
If you can wait for a week or two, I can give you a "proof of concept"
patch to use separate targets for compression and out-of-line storage.
It would be interesting to see how much that helps when combined with
your more aggressive compression configuration.
