lizard VS c-blosc

Compare lizard vs c-blosc and see what are their differences.

lizard

Lizard (formerly LZ5) is an efficient compressor with very fast decompression. It achieves compression ratio that is comparable to zip/zlib and zstd/brotli (at low and medium compression levels) at decompression speed of 1000 MB/s and faster. (by inikep)

c-blosc

A blocking, shuffling and loss-less compression library that can be faster than `memcpy()`. (by Blosc)
