+.BI buffer_compress_percentage \fR=\fPint
+If this is set, then fio will attempt to provide IO buffer content (on WRITEs)
+that compress to the specified level. Fio does this by providing a mix of
+random data and zeroes. Note that this is per block size unit, for file/disk
+wide compression level that matches this setting, you'll also want to set
+\fBrefill_buffers\fR.
+.TP
+.BI buffer_compress_chunk \fR=\fPint
+See \fBbuffer_compress_percentage\fR. This setting allows fio to manage how
+big the ranges of random data and zeroed data is. Without this set, fio will
+provide \fBbuffer_compress_percentage\fR of blocksize random data, followed by
+the remaining zeroed. With this set to some chunk size smaller than the block
+size, fio can alternate random and zeroed data throughout the IO buffer.
