Great, thank you for your work.

I think the patches could use a pgindent run.

I don't see a reason why the temp file compression method should be
different from the wal compression methods, which we already have
in-tree. Perhaps it would be nice to have a 0001 patch, which would
abstract the compression methods we now have for wal into a separate
file containing GUC option values and functions for
compress/decompress. Then, 0002 would apply this to temporary file
compression.
