The Best 7 LZ4 Alternatives
Lossless compression algorithm, providing compression speed at 400 MB/s per core, scalable with multi-cores CPU.
it features an extremely fast decoder, with speed in multiple gb/s per core, typically reaching ram speed limits on multicore systems.
speed can be tuned dynamically, selecting an "acceleration" factor which trades compression ratio for more speed up. on the other end, a high compression derivative, lz4_hc, is also provided, trading cpu time for improved compression ratio. all versions feature the same decompression speed.
