It works fine, you have to use the correct config.

-mzstd
Streams: 8447 / 8447
Time: 00:00:34 (CPU 00:03:48)
Duplicates: 104 (0,00 MB) [0,00 MB >> 6,50 MB]
Srep decompression memory: 1,00 MB

Size: 411 MB >> 586 MB >> 579 MB >> 568 MB >> 344 MB

-mfrostbite3,zstd
Streams: 8338 / 8338
Time: 00:00:33 (CPU 00:03:46)
Duplicates: 0 (0,00 MB) [0,00 MB >> 0,00 MB]
Srep decompression memory: 2,00 MB

Size: 411 MB >> 579 MB >> 579 MB >> 568 MB >> 344 MB

The plugin skips streams which are less or equal 65536 bytes which leads to a bit better performance (see cpu time) with no impact in ratio afterwards.
