I think this can use a lot of memory during compression? Also, compression takes significantly longer, see https://community.centminmod.com/data/attachment-files/2017/09/5843_compress-test-zstd1.3.1-threaded-1-19-030917.png |

Our largest package files are, I believe, 2 gigabytes (some noarch data pack for some possibly restricted game, maldridge as maintainer). What's the memory consumption when compressing those? |
|
zstd 9: 24-180 M Measured on flightgear-data, linux5.6-dbg and kicad-packages3D (last is biggest unpacked but highly compressible). details |

Level 21 can run out of memory on 32bit machines: facebook/zstd#2711 Idk how close to it 19 can be. |
