compaction/better efficiency? #38

Could this be improved by hosting app as CouchApp on Iris Couch servers? This would avoid having to use CORS, and cut down on half of the http requests: http://pouchdb.com/2014/08/29/pouchdb-3.0.3.html

Problem with compaction is you loose the history I would suspect, at least you do with revisions. This is one reason I like the concept of delta-pouch. I would like to use it to not only manage multiple disconnected updates to the same doc but keep track of when and who (userid?) made each change for a historical log. Is handy for legal reasons but also for backing out changes that might not be appropriate (ie time sequence of posting versus synching or authority overrides).
