.SH NAME
|
|
\fBlz4\fR - Extremely fast compression algorithm
|
|
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fBlz4\fR is an extremely fast lossless compression algorithm. It is based on
|
|
the \fBLZ77\fR family of compression scheme. At the compression speed of 400
|
|
MB/s per core, \fBlz4\fR is also scalable with multi-core CPUs. It features
|
|
an extremely fast decoder, with speed in multiple GB/s per core, typically
|
|
reaching the RAM speed limits on multi-core systems. \fBlz4\fR supports
|
|
following options
