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.

June 2022 What Are You Working On?
Zip-Ada: added support for archives with large (> 4 GiB) or numerous (> 65535) files. List of changes here: https://github.com/zertovitch/zip-ada/commits/master

Zip-Ada development on LZMA compression
Thanks for the pointer. Perhaps, one day... It looks like a significant effort compared to launching executables from a script or an Ada program. See current benchmark script here: https://github.com/zertovitch/zip-ada/blob/master/test/bench.adb

My experience with btrfs so far
Do not re-compress your file into level 3. The decompression speed is largely the same between level 3 and 8, so you just wasting CPU doing nothing and making your files larger. See the bottom of the README: https://github.com/inikep/lzbench

Lizard – efficient compression with fast decompression
Note that a benchmark in the README refers to zstd 1.1.1 and brotli 0.5.2, which are very old (the current versions are zstd 1.5.2 and brotli 1.0.9). The same author maintains lzbench [1], which is more or less up-to-date.

Zip-Ada development on LZMA compression
u/zertillon, maybe you could use lzbench, so you could compare it with a lot of other compression libraries. The problem is that it requires including the library in a single executable, so it might be more difficult to integrate than a C library (the benchmark is in C++).

Is there any site that lists the current SOTA for lossless compression?
Still updated: https://github.com/inikep/lzbench

will ZSTD impact L2ARC performance?
If you want to know the size a VM will compress to,. Zstd can be installed on any machine, so you can experiment easily. You can even run the benchmark https://github.com/inikep/lzbench

Save disk space for your games: BTRFS filesystem compression as alternative to CompactGUI on Linux
Are you sure about that? That's not what I see on https://github.com/inikep/lzbench and I tried to run that myself, although I have no idea which lzo to try so I went with what seemed the fastest...
What are some alternatives?
