Piston rings sound like they are gone if all the compressions came back a good 40 psi higher!
Did you notice you were burning oil, or blowing smoke?

Aye, going to be rings as Ameachizzle says.
Does your crankcase vent have a lot of vapour into the airbox?

I did notice it a bit harsh with the oil but never noticed it smokey at all
