Zstd 1.4.5 Released With 5~10% Faster Decompression For x86_64, 15~50% For ARM64
Zstandard 1.4.5 comes with faster decompression performance. On x86_64 CPUs the Zstd 1.4.5 performance benefits are in the area of 5~10%. But if you are running on Arm SoCs this time around it can be 15~50% faster. Most of the Arm decompression improvements will be on the lower end of that range but for certain SoCs under ideal conditions can be 50% faster.
Zstd 1.4.5 also has integration improvements, a --patch-from argument for offering a high speed engine for producing and applying patches to files, and various other improvements.
