I noticed this when the cargo-deb step in our CI became slower instead of faster after going from --fast with default features (i.e. LZMA) to --no-default-features (i.e. Zopfli but no --fast flag).
The value for maximum_iterators is a suggestion from the documentation of zopfli-rs for files over multiple MB (which is the case for our particular package) and I just tried to apply the same scaling to maximum_block_splits but I have admittedly no reasoning for this.
