I probably shouldn't have used the word compost in my recs for amending clay because it is too general.  I should have said forest or leaf compost not your typical kitchen scrap compost.  I don't know how huge quantities of kitchen compost would work although vegetables that have grown in it have done fine in my experience.  For me, kitchen compost is too precious to use wholesale as a soil modifier.  Of course with any amendment you have to be mindful of pH
