Well, yes, you have the point. However, lz4 is getting into the kernel (http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTQwODY),
so this might be the reason for its wider usage.
I'm just suggesting, didn't have the intention to wine about adding new feature (I
know how it can be annoying). :)
paracelsus:
Is it actually in use anywhere? There are far more compression formats than I could
ever implement, so I try to limit it to ones that actually see some use.
