Thanks for providing an in-depth, data driven analysis.

It is surprising that zlib provides better compression at the high end.  I
wonder if that is due to our specific data patterns - many zeroes - which
probably puts us into the zlib dictionary fast path.

    <div>Hi All,<br>
      <br>
      Here are some final results of testing with the reference
      implementation for compressing blocks and transactions. This
      implementation also concatenates blocks and transactions when
      possible so you&#39;ll see data sizes in the 1-2MB ranges.<br>
      <br>
      Results below show the time it takes to sync the first part of the
      blockchain, comparing Zlib to the LZOx library.=C2=A0 (LZOf was also
      tried but wasn&#39;t found to be as good as LZOx).=C2=A0 The followin=
g
      shows tests run with and without latency.=C2=A0 With latency on the
      network, all compression libraries performed much better than
      without compression.<br>
      <br>
      I don&#39;t think it&#39;s entirely obvious which is better, Zlib or =
LZO.=C2=A0
      Although I prefer the higher compression of Zlib, overall I would
      have to give the edge to LZO.=C2=A0 With LZO we have the fastest most
      scalable option when at the lowest compression setting which will
      be a boost in performance for users that want peformance over
      compression, and then at the high end LZO provides decent
      compression which approaches Zlib, (although at a higher cost) but
      good for those that want to save more bandwidth.<br>

      The following shows the time in seconds to compress data of
      various sizes.=C2=A0 LZO1x is the<br>
      fastest and as file sizes increase, LZO1x time hardly increases at
      all.=C2=A0 It&#39;s interesing<br>
      to note as compression ratios increase LZOx-999 performs much
      worse than Zlib.=C2=A0 So LZO is faster<br>
      on the low end and slower (5 to 6 times slower) on the high end.<br>
