gollark: Maybe this needs its own component in Rust for something something high performance.
gollark: I could use a bincode-type thing, chunk messages into groups of maybe a thousand each, and run them through zstandard compression, and then have a few uncompressed statistics, but I don't want ABR to store too much state in memory.
