zstd-compress archives #718

Closed Mark-Simulacrum closed 8 months ago

Mark-Simulacrum commented 8 months ago

Archives are smaller, faster to compress, and faster to decompress. Installing zstd is pretty easy on most platforms as well, on my couple systems the default system tar is able to read .tar.zst files just fine too.

It's a win for the duration of the compression though; zstd compressing the all.tar tarball takes ~12 seconds locally vs. 2 minutes with gzip (at default settings), and zstd produces a ~500MB smaller compressed result (1.2 GB -> 705MB).
