ZSTD compression for ZFS

09.11.2017

ZSTD compression for ZFS looks very promising, apart from the fact that the throughput is much higher compared to gzip compression at similar compression ratios. We have a use case for even the highest compression settings, where we store data only once but read it often - the fast decompression throughput for reading makes this feasible.
