---The LZ4 compression format. Compresses and decompresses very quickly, but the compression ratio is not the best. LZ4-HC is used when compression level 9 is specified. Some benchmarks are available here.
---
---| "lz4"
---
---The zlib format is DEFLATE-compressed data with a small bit of header data. Compresses relatively slowly and decompresses moderately quickly, and has a decent compression ratio.
---
---| "zlib"
---
---The gzip format is DEFLATE-compressed data with a slightly larger header than zlib. Since it uses DEFLATE it has the same compression characteristics as the zlib format.
---
---| "gzip"
---
---Raw DEFLATE-compressed data (no header).
