  • libzim

    Reference implementation of the ZIM specification

    Project mention: WikiReader | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-12-03

    I meant the Kiwix dump (https://download.kiwix.org/zim/wikipedia_en_all_nopic.zim – careful, 60GB!).

    At a first glance, the Wikimedia XML dump does not look substantially different from what Kiwix/ZIM does with compressed HTML: They're both compressed (bz2 for the Wikimedia dump, zstd or LZMA for Kiwix/ZIM), and both compress multiple files at once, so inter-file redundancy should hopefully be significantly reduced.

    HTML seems a bit more verbose than the Mediawiki syntax (plus the XML header for each article), but I'd be surprised if that actually accounted for a 3x difference in size.

    Then again, Kiwix seems to have experimented with shared dictionary brotli compression, which supposedly yields an >2x improvement: https://github.com/openzim/libzim/issues/144

    I wonder if their current zstd implementation also uses shared dictionaries. If not, that might just be the reason: If ZIM compression chunks are much smaller than the bz2 streams of the Wikimedia dumps, there would still be a lot of redundancy between chunks.
