We're currently archiving a lot of old and unused histories to tape by exporting histories to RO-crates, and CPU utilization appears to be the bottleneck.

I've switched out the default zlib DEFLATE compression with the more efficient DEFLATE implementation provided by https://github.com/intel/isa-l via https://pypi.org/project/isal/. I've also tried zlib-ng (https://github.com/zlib-ng/zlib-ng) but that was only marginally faster.

This is about 3 times faster on 8GB sampled from /dev/urandom (~160 MB/s vs ~56 MB/s), both locally and on galaxy07 under heavy load.

How to test the changes?

  • I've included appropriate automated tests.

I think this works only because this files also imports from galaxy.util.compression_utils import CompressedFile. Should we re-export shutil (maybe as gx_shutil) in lib/galaxy/util/compression_utils.py and import it in this file from there?
