max_wait  (duration)  maximum wait time between operations, defaults to '15s'
cycle     (duration)  time duration between scanner cycles
```

Example: the following setting will decrease the scanner speed by a factor of 3, reducing the system resource use, but increasing the latency of updates being reflected.

```sh
~ mc admin config set alias/ scanner delay=30.0
```

Decompression speed is typically at least 1GB/s.

This means that in cases where raw IO is below these numbers
compression will not only reduce disk usage but also help increase system throughput.
Typically, enabling compression on spinning disk systems
will increase speed when the content can be compressed.
