Zstd Compression

This test measures the time needed to compress/decompress a sample file (silesia.tar) using Zstd (Zstandard) compression with options for different compression levels / settings.


Zstd Compression 1.5.4

Compression Level: 19 - Compression Speed

OpenBenchmarking.org metrics for this test profile configuration based on 1,851 public results since 10 February 2023 with the latest data as of 15 January 2025.

Below is an overview of the generalized performance for components where there is sufficient statistically significant data based upon user-uploaded results. It is important to keep in mind particularly in the Linux/open-source space there can be vastly different OS configurations, with this overview intended to offer just general guidance as to the performance expectations.
