Yes, LZO, LZ4, or snappy would be good choices. They are 
real-time compression algorithms, i.e. it's faster to compress 
and write to main memory than w/o compression.
Please don't write anything on your own. There is a meta library 
for those algorithms http://blosc.org/, for which I added Deimos 
headers http://code.dlang.org/packages/d-blosc.
