MG-234: REDUCE_LOGS=compress_logs compresses large must-gather logs before rsync - #559
Conversation
Allow REDUCE_LOGS=compress_logs to gzip collected .log files larger than 10MB after gatherers finish (before rsync), with COMPRESS_LOGS_JOBS to tune parallelism. Unset REDUCE_LOGS keeps existing behavior. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
Replace the manual PID pool with find | xargs -P for clearer parallelism, and drop the unused missing-directory guard now that gather always writes to /must-gather before compression runs. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>

- Around line 97-98: Update the find-to-gzip pipeline in the log compression
command to use NUL-delimited output and NUL-aware xargs with no-run-on-empty
behavior, preserving pathnames containing whitespace, newlines, or quotes and
avoiding invocation when no files match. Add coverage for a matching filename
containing spaces and for an empty target directory.

| Copy time change | +5.9 min | +19.0 min |
Notes
- Size win is consistent (~−76%); compression itself adds only ~4 min.
- E2E was longer than full must gather (without compression) mainly due to slower rsync of already-gzipped logs (wire
speedup~1.16 vs ~5.1 on uncompressed text) plus copy-path variance — not because higherCOMPRESS_LOGS_JOBSslows the cluster. - jobs=4 did not improve compress time vs jobs=2; the jobs=4 E2E gap is mostly copy variance (~2.7 vs ~3.7 MiB/s).

This is too complex. Can we simplify it to have it more readable.
