Used it; love it! Highly recommended for queues, caches etc. If you just need some decent compression and higher speeds use LZ4.

- borramakot 6y agoLZ4 seems really nice for data with a lot of repetition, but not having any symbolic entropy encoder can really kill the compression for some data. I often default to LZ4, and used to fall back to gzip if that doesn't work well, but I've been really impressed with zstd. It's not as commonly used, but if I'm not concerned about interoperability, I'll be trying to use a lot more zstd.
