Hi Denis,
is it possible to add ZSTD compression support with the possibility to
add - for example multithreading - options?
Quote from your patch:
> As a sidenote, for multi-threaded lzma, xz compression one can use:
> $ export XZ_OPT="--threads=0"
man zstd says:
-T#, --threads=#
Compress using # working threads (default: 1). If # is
0, attempt to detect and use the number of physical CPU cores. In all
cases, the nb of threads is capped to ZST‐
DMT_NBTHREADS_MAX==200. This modifier does nothing if
zstd is compiled without multithread support.
Of course, I can help with testing.
For the documentation - which I have not checked - are the tools and
libs mentioned you will need to have installed for certain compression
tools?
For ZSTD on Debian - these are zstd and libzstd1:amd64 packages.
Thanks.
Regards,
