Looking on the Zstandard website (https://facebook.github.io/zstd/), it
mentions google's snappy compression library
(https://github.com/google/snappy).  Snappy has some fairly good
benchmarks too:

Compressor      Ratio   Compression     Decompress.
zstd            2.884   500 MB/s        1660 MB/s
snappy          2.073   560 MB/s        1790 MB/s

Would snappy be easier to use than Zstandard?
