CLS-ZStd

[felice2011]

I place an quick test of compression and decompression with enwik8, with and without cls.dll, with a block of memory resident in the 16384k heap, to equal the same compression ratio in response to the use of zstd without the cls.

I also tried to use 8 threads, the speed of compression increases considerably, but the cpu ... squirts to hell, with freeze pc if not adequately cooled.

zstd without cls

With the use of the cls the compression time decreases by almost 60% while maintaining the same compression ratio with and without cls.
On the contrary, the decompression time has a lower speed of 15-17% with the use of cls, but in this case I think you should test larger files.
These dll alternative by razor are a real boon from sky ...
