lz4: A lossless compression algorithm.

What problem it solves Applications and data streams need compression without introducing data loss. The project provides library and command-line interfaces, configurable compression behavior, and formats for both individual blocks and streaming frames. Key features Configurable compression — Compression speed can be adjusted dynamically through an acceleration factor, while the LZ4_HC derivative…
