Are you still using gzip or bzip2? If backwards compatibility isn't a concern, there's hardly ever any argument for it. zstd totally outperforms them in speed and still compresses better. If size is your only relevant outcome use xz.
Right. I meant to say as well as zstd. pzstd is probably nice, but perhaps less available to mere mortals.pic.twitter.com/dUgOmbhmHG

it's part of the normal zstd package, it's just as available as normal zstd.

Indeed it does. Thanks. While the CPU usage was indeed more maxed out with pzstd, I'm still not seeing how it's better than pigz in my single test case of a large file I had around. Perhaps it's good in some scenarios, but I'm not seeing an obvious reason to use it vs. pigz.pic.twitter.com/VS6u4Y0XoA
