Option for flat tar no compression #18

Closed orcutt989 closed 2 years ago

orcutt989 commented 2 years ago

Could we add an option for no compression? flat tar?

thenickdude commented 2 years ago

With the default compression level of 1 it should be extremely lightweight with either zstd or lz4. Do you need to be able to seek within the tar or something?

orcutt989 commented 2 years ago

Wow thanks for the fast reply. No seeking, just curious about the difference between lz4 level 1 and uncompressed. Seems trivial but I just wanted to confirm.

It's crazy fast, to the point that disabling it will make performance worse for just about all usecases

Awesome thanks
