Upgrade LZ4 to version 1.1.0.
|
Sounds good, thanks! |
|
Very impressive numbers! |
|
Yes, I was impressed too. I ran it on my laptop (intel core i7 / Linux), I'm curious to know if results are as impressive on other platforms. |

I wish I had more time to spend on this. I am actually using LZF for https://github.com/FasterXML/TransiStore along with basic deflate (gzip). But I might be able to add a new option for lz4 as well, given bit more time. It would be good, especially if HC variant really is at least about as fast as Snappy/LZF -- speed is not big challenge currently (although faster is of course nicer), but higher compression ratio would be sweet. |

Hi,
Here is a pull request to upgrade LZ4 to version 1.1.0. One advantage of this new artifact is that it has been packaged with pre-compiled JNI bindings (for win32/amd64, linux/i386, linux/amd64 and darwin/x86_64) so I added a driver based on JNI bindings to the C library.
In case you want to have a look, I ran the compress and uncompress benchmarks on the calgary corpus:
(I had to increase the maximum throughputs in DriverBase.java so that the limit wasn't reached on every file with LZ4 (JNI).)
