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.

ELI5 how archiving on computers work
Another fun trick is to compress less often used stuff in RAM memory, because decompressing something like LZ4 or Lizard is still potentially orders of magnitude faster than reading from disk.
- Lizard – efficient compression with fast decompression

C Deep
Lizard - Formerly LZ5; an efficient compressor with fast decompression. Achieves compression ratios comparable with zip and zlib at decompression speeds of 1000MB/s and faster. BSD-2-Clause

WASM compression benchmarks and the cost of missing compression APIs
Related to compressing data before storing on SSD:
Blosc - faster than memcpy()
https://github.com/Blosc/c-blosc
On right circumstances Blosc is so fast that even speed ups reading data from RAM (read less, decompress in L1 and L2 caches)
What are some alternatives?
ZLib - A massively spiffy yet delicately unobtrusive compression library.
lexbor - Lexbor is development of an open source HTML Renderer library. https://lexbor.com
python-zstandard - Python bindings to the Zstandard (zstd) compression library
