Description
Incompressible pages are not written entirely. Although this won't impose an issue in a non-cloud deployment, but in a cloud deployment, this would mess up the file. The reason is that, in a cloud deployment, writes are "append-only". That means, writes' offsets cannot be used to determine the write position.
Thus, if an incompressible page is written and the size of the page is smaller than a full page, this could write this page's content at the wrong position in the cloud storage – leading to have more bytes in local files than in the cloud.
