    Using the cached-microdesc-consensus that is:

    valid-after 2017-11-21 11:00:00

    I get the following results:

    $ zstd cached-microdesc-consensus
    $ gzip -9 cached-microdesc-consensus
    $ du -h cached-microdesc-consensus*
    1.9M	cached-microdesc-consensus
    564K	cached-microdesc-consensus.gz
    576K	cached-microdesc-consensus.zst

    It's only 2% larger, but I thought zstd was meant to produce smaller consensuses than gzip? Or did I get the compression settings wrong?
