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.

Jpegli: A New JPEG Coding Library
JPEGLI = A small JPEG
The suffix -li is used in Swiss German dialects. It forms a diminutive of the root word, by adding -li to the end of the root word to convey the smallness of the object and to convey a sense of intimacy or endearment.
This obviously comes out of Google Zürich.
Other notable Google projects using Swiss German:
https://github.com/google/gipfeli high-speed compression
Gipfeli = Croissant
https://github.com/google/guetzli perceptual JPEG encoder
Guetzli = Cookie
https://github.com/weggli-rs/weggli semantic search tool
Weggli = Bread roll
https://github.com/google/brotli lossless compression
Brötli = Small bread

Compression efficiency with shared dictionaries in Chrome
The brotli repo on github has a dictionary generator: https://github.com/google/brotli/blob/master/research/dictio...
I have a hosted version of it on https://use-as-dictionary.com/ to make it easier to experiment with.

The Full-Stack development experience
An additional element that we can finally remove from our stack is the minification of JavaScript and CSS files. Thanks to algorithms like brotli (with a very Swiss flavour) we no longer need to minify and compress our files before distributing them. Cloudflare, Nginx, or Apache will take care of everything for us.

Framer Update: 2x Faster Sites
We serve your site from a global cache location close to your visitors to make sure your site loads fast. In addition, we use an advanced HTML and text compression algorithm called Brotli. Compressed content is now cached, so we can send it directly to your visitors instead of compressing each request individually. In our tests this often improves loading speed by up to 2x, which will have a very positive impact on your Lighthouse scores like LCP. This will be especially noticeable on larger sites, so you can scale your site without worry.

How Much Faster Is Making a Tar Archive Without Gzip?
For anyone who wants to try this, zstd -T0 uses all your threads to compress, and https://github.com/facebook/zstd has a lot more description. Brotli, https://github.com/google/brotli, is another modern format with some good features for high compression levels and Content-Encoding support in web browsers. You might also want to play with the compression level (-1 to -11 or more, zstd's --fast=n).
One reason these modern compressors do better is not any particular mistake made defining DEFLATE in the 90s, but that new algos use a few MB of recently seen data as context instead of 32KB, and do other things impractical in the 90s but reasonable on modern hardware. The new algorithms also contain logs of smart ideas and have fine-tuned implementations, but that core difference seems important to note.

Stop delaying. Share knowledge on a blog built with Eleventy.
Alright, the minifying is done. What else? Did you know you can serve HTML, CSS and JS compressed? A lot of websites still use gzip, but there’s also Brotli. Brotli is specifically made for the web and compresses a lot better than gzip in most cases.

Configuring CloudFront to compress objects in AWS CDK
You can use CloudFront to automatically compress certain types of objects (files) and serve the compressed objects when viewers (web browsers or other clients) support them. Viewers indicate their support for compressed objects with the Accept-Encoding HTTP header. CloudFront can compress objects using the Gzip and Brotli compression formats. When the viewer supports both formats, CloudFront prefers Brotli.

Chrome Feature: ZSTD Content-Encoding
Of course, you may get different results with another dataset.
gzip (zlib -6) [ratio=32%] [compr=35Mo/s] [dec=407Mo/s]
zstd (zstd -2) [ratio=32%] [compr=356Mo/s] [dec=1067Mo/s]
NB1: The default for zstd is -3, but the table only had -2. The difference is probably small. The range is 1-22 for zstd and 1-9 for gzip.
NB2: The default program for gzip (at least with Debian) is the executable from zlib. With my workflows, libdeflate-gzip iscompatible and noticably faster.
NB3: This benchmark is 2 years old. The latest releases of zstd are much better, see https://github.com/facebook/zstd/releases
For a high compression, according to this benchmark xz can do slightly better, if you're willing to pay a 10× penalty on decompression.
xz -9 [ratio=23%] [compr=2.6Mo/s] [dec=88Mo/s]
zstd -9 [ratio=23%] [compr=2.6Mo/s] [dec=88Mo/s]

Optimizating Rabin-Karp Hashing
Compression, synchronization and backup systems often use rolling hash to implement "content-defined chunking", an effective form of deduplication.
In optimized implementations, Rabin-Karp is likely to be the bottleneck. See for instance https://github.com/facebook/zstd/pull/2483 which replaces a Rabin-Karp variant by a >2x faster Gear-Hashing.
