When recording malformed packet contents, do we do in-file compression? #20

A lot of malformed packets will have identical payloads, modulo IP addresses and timestamps. When designing how we store malformed packet contents, do we try and take advantage of this, or leave this to external general purpose compression.

We have commoned up these.
