version: 1.8.4
summary: Extremely Fast Compression algorithm
description: >
LZ4 is lossless compression algorithm, providing compression
speed > 500 MB/s per core, scalable with multi-cores CPU. It features an
extremely fast decoder, with speed in multiple GB/s per core, typically
reaching RAM speed limits on multi-core systems.
.
Speed can be tuned dynamically, selecting an "acceleration" factor which
trades compression ratio for faster speed. On the other end, a high
compression derivative, LZ4_HC, is also provided, trading CPU time for
improved compression ratio. All versions feature the same decompression
speed.
.
LZ4 is also compatible with dictionary compression, and can ingest any
input file as dictionary, including those created by Zstandard Dictionary
Builder. (note: only the final 64KB are used).
.
LZ4 library is provided as open-source software using BSD 2-Clause license.
