Show HN: Zeekstd – Rust Implementation of the ZSTD Seekable Format


Rust implementation of the Zstandard Seekable Format - rorosen/zeekstd

A Rust implementation of the Zstandard Seekable Format. The seekable format splits compressed data into a series of independent "frames", each compressed individually, so that decompression of a section in the middle of an archive only requires zstd to decompress at most a frame's worth of extra data, instead of the entire archive. A seekable Encoder will start new frames automatically at 2MiB of uncompressed data.
