I think you misunderstood that last part.  There can only be one output
format, and the last option wins.  So you are really running in
directory format only.

As for performance, you generally have the right idea.  Specifics depend
on the hardware.

My experience is that any compression at all can be bad for performance.
 But the I/O cost might balance that in some cases.
