Add zstd as a compression algorithm.

Open stefins opened this issue 1 year ago • 5 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. It would be better to add zstd as a compression algorithm for transferring file as it provides high compression ratio.

Describe the solution you'd like We can use the go library https://github.com/DataDog/zstd for it.

Additional context https://facebook.github.io/zstd/

@stefins sorry - I reverted this change because unfortunately there is no scheme in place to have different compression algorithms so this would be a breaking change. I'm okay with a breaking change, but I'll wait a bit before releasing it, possibly with another breaking change.

Lets keep this open until then!
