ZSTD is an industry standard lossless parallel compressor brought by Facebook that promises a strong compression ratio with an high throughput. It also provides the possibility of generating and using a dictionary to increase small files (de)compression, this can be a key feature. https://facebook.github.io/zstd/.
I believe it will be beneficial to replace the BZIP2 compressor to the zstd for better performance overall.
Looks neat, could be an optional dependency that coexists with bzip2. Operators in general weren't designed to compete, but rather driven by user requests.
