NDJSON files can get pretty big - and they are extremely compressible.

The multi-line JSON methods should gain the ability to recognize .gz and .zip at least. Maybe .xz and .bz2 too (others?). And then pass them through Python's built-in de-compressors. I don't think Python has a generic layer for this already, so this might require a little abstraction code.

Some stats on the various linuxy compression approaches, for the curious. Seems like when taking time into account, gzip is "good enough".
