I believe zstd does parallel compression/decompression and has some of the best efficiency ratios.[1] I’ve been replacing gzip with zstd as a general purpose compression format.

- out_of_protocol 4y agoSo, zstd is gzip replacement? lower compression ratio than bzip2 and much much faster. Also better in both compression and speed than gzip
- bradknowles 4y agoWith the right options, zstd can compress quite a bit better than bzip2 and gzip. Albeit probably not as fast as gzip, because squeezing out that extra compression space is a trade for speed.
