Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Announcing a new arithmetic coding library!
Interesting to see how it compares to Turbo-Range-Coder. Executables for windows and linux can be downloaded here.
- Fastest Range Coder for byte, integer, floating point data and BWT
LZSSE
- LZSSE: LZ77/LZSS designed for SSE based decompression

Iguana: fast SIMD-optimized decompression
- the code was non-perfect, and the fuzzer has found issues.
LZSSE library was abandoned five years ago, but they have great blog posts to read: https://github.com/ConorStokes/LZSSE
Iguana looks promising, but AVX-512 requirement is too restrictive. We need something to work both on x86 and ARM. Also, integrating Go assembly into other software is not easy. And A-GPL license makes it incompatible.
