I'm not missing the point. I'm responding to the thread, which is about whether XZ offers better compression ratios than Zstd.
Whether it's faster in some, many, or most cases isn't really relevant.
- tepitoperrito 4y agoYup and how much better is about 1%. "zstd and xz trade blows in their compression ratio. Recompressing all packages to zstd with our options yields a total ~0.8% increase in package size on all of our packages combined, but the decompression time for all packages saw a ~1300% speedup."
