[PATCH] D20272: [ELF] - Support of compressed input sections implemented.

[Rui Ueyama via llvm-commits]

ruiu added a comment.

Do compressed and mergeable sections exist? If the combination of the two doesn't exist in the real world, we can simply reject that.

I think performance matters even with compressed debug info. For example, if you are doing distributed build, you may want to reduce the network traffic by compressing large debug sections to reduce the overall build time (sending small files is faster than larger ones).
