sci@gentoo.org Gentoo Science Project mgorny@gentoo.org Michał Górny Blosc is a compression library designed to transmit data to the processor cache faster than the traditional non-compressed memory fetch. Compression ratios are not very high, but the decompression is very fast. Blosc is meant not only to reduce the size of large datasets on-disk or in-memory, but also to accelerate memory-bound computations. Blosc/c-blosc
