[issue26253] tarfile in stream mode always set zlib compression level to 9

[wim glenn]

wim glenn added the comment:

This issue also got me.  compresslevel kwarg works fine for tarfile.open(..., mode='w:gz') but raises exception for tarfile.open(..., mode='w|gz')

I want to use stream compression, and compresslevel=1 is more than enough for my use case, the default of 9 is way too slow.
