I always find [lrzip](https://github.com/ckolivas/lrzip https://github.com/ckolivas/lrzip) is under appreciated when it comes to compression discussions; it doesn't suit all circumstances, but it works really well in the ones it does (we're using it with the nocompress flag and then using zstd, hence why it comes to mind :-) ) Edit: it's not well suited to real-time...

If you're using lrzip, you should also check out zstd long range mode [0]. It uses a long window (128 MB by default, up to 2 GB), together with an efficient search strategy, and multithreading. For example, a 2 GB window, with 4 threads, at level 10: zstd --long=31 -T4 -10 It should be faster than lrzip + zstd and provide about the same results.
