Compressed data formats.

Constants

lz4
The LZ4 compression format. Compresses and decompresses very quickly, but the compression ratio is not the best. LZ4-HC is used when compression level 9 is specified. Some benchmarks are available here.
zlib
The zlib format is DEFLATE-compressed data with a small bit of header data. Compresses relatively slowly and decompresses moderately quickly, and has a decent compression ratio.
gzip
The gzip format is DEFLATE-compressed data with a slightly larger header than zlib. Since it uses DEFLATE it has the same compression characteristics as the zlib format.
