I wish Rust would add this, but they don't seem interested at all:
Just did some quick research and it looks like you can serve pre-compressed static resources in Brotil. See the precompressed option of the file_server directive[1].
The thinking seems to be due to how CPU intensive it is, Brotil is not favoured for on-the-fly compression[2].
If you're really desperate for it though, you could try [this extension][3].

Recent versions of zstd definitely don't obsolete LZ4, or else I don't think the author would still be contributing to both...
And if you're going to play with Snappy, you might find S2, which was linked on HN relatively recently, interesting. [1]
Yes, sort of: "Zstd offers a training mode, which can be used to tune the algorithm for a selected type of data. Training Zstandard is achieved by providing it with a few samples (one file per sample). The result of this training is stored in a file called "dictionary", which must be loaded before compression and decompression. Using this dictionary, the compression ratio achievable on small data improves dramatically."
