Redis The problem of __quicklistCompress()

The compress field of quicklist stands for depth of end nodes not to compress. Here is a sample: When there are 4 quicklistNodes in quicklist, and the compress field of the quicklist is 2, when calls __quicklistCompress(), after the while statement, the depth is 3, forward points to 3rd quicklistNode, and reverse points to 2nd quicklistNode, then quicklistCompressNode(forward); quicklistCompressNode(reverse); As a result, the quicklist only has 1st quicklistNode and 4th quicklistNode uncompressed. Is this right? The quicklist must have top 2 quicklistNode and tail 2 quicklistNode uncompressed?
