The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
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.

Intel QuickAssist Technology Zstandard Plugin for Zstandard
For using accelerators (QAT, I assume, because the article is about this) from the CLI, then QATzip[3] comes with a command line tool qatzip which can be used as described in the project ReadMe. I didn't test it, though, as I have no QAT-enabled device.

At least college isn't making me learn Objective-C.
Examples: - Someone I know created machine-optimized library in c and asm to accelerate compression, erasure coding, and encryption on Intel Xeon CPUs (https://github.com/intel/isa-l) which runs those ops WAY faster than the standard linux libraries. - My friend is making a retro SEGA genesis game using a C and asm dev kit (https://github.com/Stephane-D/SGDK)

How Much Faster Is Making a Tar Archive Without Gzip?
igzip (https://github.com/intel/isa-l) is much faster than gzip or pigz when it comes to decompression, 2-3x in my experience. There is also a Python module (isal) that provides a GzipFile-like wrapper class, for an easy speed-up of Python scripts that read gzipped files.
However, it only supports up to level 3 when compressing data, so it can't be used as a drop-in replacement for gzip. You also need to make sure to use the latest version if you are going to use it in the context of bioinformatics, since older versions choke on concatenated gzip files common in that field.
