WARNING:
This program and library (attempts to) compress data by performing several non-trivial transformations
on it. Unless you
are 100% familiar with *all* the algorithms contained herein, and with the consequences of modifying
them, you should NOT
meddle with the compression or decompression machinery. Incorrect changes can and very likely *will*
lead to disastrous
loss of data.
DISCLAIMER:
I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY LOSS OF DATA ARISING FROM THE USE OF THIS PROGRAM/LIBRARY, HOWSOEVER
CAUSED.
Every compression of a file implies an assumption that the compressed file can be decompressed to
reproduce the original.
Great efforts in design, coding and testing have been made to ensure that this program works correctly.
However, the complexity
of the algorithms, and, in particular, the presence of various special cases in the code which occur
with very low but non-zero
probability make it impossible to rule out the possibility of bugs remaining in the program. DO NOT
COMPRESS ANY DATA WITH
THIS PROGRAM UNLESS YOU ARE PREPARED TO ACCEPT THE POSSIBILITY, HOWEVER SMALL, THAT THE DATA WILL NOT BE
RECOVERABLE.
That is not to say this program is inherently unreliable. Indeed, I very much hope the opposite is true.
bzip2/libbzip2
has been carefully constructed and extensively tested.
PATENTS:
To the best of my knowledge, bzip2/libbzip2 does not use any patented algorithms. However, I do not have
the resources to
carry out a patent search. Therefore I cannot give any guarantee of the above statement.
The ZSTD data compressor by Meta Platforms, Inc. and affiliates.
- Zstandard, or zstd as short version, is a fast lossless compression algorithm, targeting real-time
compression scenarios at zlib-level and better compression ratios. It's backed by a very fast entropy
stage, provided by Huff0 and FSE library
- The home page of the compressor is at https://facebook.github.io/zstd/.
- The licensing information can be found in the zstd.h file and is provided
below.
