Members describe a bug report in which anti-thrashing protection is said to disable auto-compression with no way to recover, plus pull requests proposing recovery mechanisms (time-based and growth-based) for it. One related member refers to separate bugs that keep auto-compression from triggering; the titles alone do not show whether those overlap with the anti-thrashing issue.
