According to this warning message, BEFORE tsdb 2.11, users need to set compress_after to a larger interval than the start_offset of your refresh policy.
According to my test on tsdb 2.17.1, this is a limitation. When I try to set up compress_after < start_offset , I get an error message:
Error: compress_after value for compression policy should be greater than the start of the refresh window of continuous aggregate policy for cpu_raw_1_1h
