  • bzip3

    A better and stronger spiritual successor to BZip2.

    • Good work!

    I was also confused with faster speed claims than bzip2, and then saw the discussion in the issue: https://github.com/kspalaiologos/bzip3/issues/2

  • LZ4

    Extremely Fast Compression algorithm

    • If anyone just cares for speed instead of compression I’d recommend lz4 [1]. I only recently started using it. Its speed is almost comparable to memcpy.
