I used lzop in the past when speed was more of a concern than compressed size (big disk images etc.)
For a couple of years now I have switched to zstd. It is both fast and well compressed by default in that use case, no need to remember any options.
No, I have NOT done any deeper analysis except a couple of comparisons which I haven't even documented. But they ended up in slight favor of zstd, so I switched. But nothing dramatic making me say forget lzop.
Edit: NOT
