LZ4 is a very fast lossless compression algorithm, providing compression speed
|
|
|
|
|
at 400 MB/s per core, scalable with multi-cores CPU. It also features an
|
|
|
|
|
extremely fast decoder, with speed in multiple GB/s per core, typically

reaching RAM speed limits on multi-core systems.

A high compression derivative, called LZ4_HC, is also provided. It trades CPU

time for compression ratio.
