Description
Zstandard real-time compression algorithm.
Zstd, short for Zstandard, is a fast lossless compression algorithm, targeting real-time compression scenarios at zlib-level compression ratio. Zstd can also offer stronger compression ratio at the cost of compression speed. Speed/ratio trade-off is configurable by small increment, to fit different situations. Note however that decompression speed is preserved and remain roughly the same at all settings, a property shared by most LZ compression algorithms, such as zlib.
