LZ4 is lossless compression algorithm, providing compression speed > 500 MB/s
per core (>0.15 Bytes/cycle). It features an extremely fast decoder, with speed
in multiple GB/s per core (~1 Byte/cycle). A high compression derivative, called
LZ4_HC, is available, trading customizable CPU time for compression ratio. LZ4
library is provided as open source software using a BSD license.
