+ zstd, short for Zstandard, is a fast lossless compression algorithm, targeting
+ real-time compression scenarios at zlib-level and better compression ratios.
+ The zstd compression library provides in-memory compression and decompression
+ functions.
+
+ The library supports regular compression levels from 1 up to ZSTD_maxCLevel(),
+ which is currently 22. Levels >= 20, labeled `--ultra`, should be used with
+ caution, as they require more memory. The library also offers negative
+ compression levels, which extend the range of speed vs. ratio preferences.
+ The lower the level, the faster the speed (at the cost of compression).
+
Compression can be done in:
- a single step (described as Simple API)
- - a single step, reusing a context (described as Explicit memory management)
+ - a single step, reusing a context (described as Explicit context)
- unbounded multiple steps (described as Streaming compression)
- The compression ratio achievable on small data can be highly improved using a dictionary in:

+ * while operating on a single set of internal tables. This makes

+ * compression. For small compressions (< 8 KB), that copy can dominate
+ * the cost of the compression.
+ *
+ * - The CDict's tables can be used in-place. In this model, compression is
+ * slower per input byte, because the compressor has to search two sets of
+ * tables. However, this model incurs no start-up cost (as long as the
+ * working context's tables can be reused). For small inputs, this can be
+ * faster than copying the CDict's tables.
+ *
+ * - The CDict's tables are not used at all, and instead we use the working
+ * context alone to reload the dictionary and use params based on the source
+ * size. See ZSTD_compress_insertDictionary() and ZSTD_compress_usingDict().
+ * This method is effective when the dictionary sizes are very small relative
+ * to the input size, and the input size is fairly large to begin with.

+/*!
Block functions produce and decode raw zstd blocks, without frame metadata.
- Frame metadata cost is typically ~18 bytes, which can be non-negligible for very small blocks (< 100 bytes).
- User will have to take in charge required information to regenerate data, such as compressed and content sizes.
+ Frame metadata cost is typically ~12 bytes, which can be non-negligible for very small blocks (< 100 bytes).
+ But users will have to take in charge needed metadata to regenerate data, such as compressed and content sizes.
A few rules to respect :
- Compressing and decompressing require a context structure
+ compression : any ZSTD_compressBegin*() variant, including with dictionary
+ decompression : any ZSTD_decompressBegin*() variant, including with dictionary
+ copyCCtx() and copyDCtx() can be used too
- - Block size is limited, it must be <= ZSTD_getBlockSize() <= ZSTD_BLOCKSIZE_MAX
+ - Block size is limited, it must be <= ZSTD_getBlockSize() <= ZSTD_BLOCKSIZE_MAX == 128 KB
+ If input is larger than a block size, it's necessary to split input data into multiple blocks
- + For inputs larger than a single block size, consider using the regular ZSTD_compress() instead.
- Frame metadata is not that costly, and quickly becomes negligible as source size grows larger.
- - When a block is considered not compressible enough, ZSTD_compressBlock() result will be zero.
- In which case, nothing is produced into `dst`.
- + User must test for such outcome and deal directly with uncompressed data
- + ZSTD_decompressBlock() doesn't accept uncompressed data as input !!!

+ + ZSTD_decompressBlock() _doesn't accept uncompressed data as input_ !!
+ In case of multiple successive blocks, should some of them be uncompressed,
decoder must be informed of their existence in order to follow proper history.
Use ZSTD_insertBlock() for such a case.
