Snappy is a compression/decompression library. It does not aim for
|
|
maximum compression, or compatibility with any other compression
|
|
library; instead, it aims for very high speeds and reasonable
|
|
compression. For instance, compared to the fastest mode of zlib,
|
|
Snappy is an order of magnitude faster for most inputs, but the
|
|
resulting compressed files are anywhere from 20% to 100% bigger. On a
|
|
single core of a Core i7 processor in 64-bit mode, Snappy compresses
|
|
at about 250 MB/sec or more and decompresses at about 500 MB/sec or
|
|
more.

This package is Java implementation of Snappy (1.0 branch).
