Stream encoding provides CRC checks of data. + +It is possible to efficiently skip forward in a compressed stream using the `Skip()` method. +For big skips the decompressor is able to skip blocks without decompressing them. + +## Single Blocks + +Similar to Snappy S2 offers single block compression. +Blocks do not offer the same flexibility and safety as streams, +but may be preferable for very small payloads, less than 100K. + +Using a simple `dst := s2.Encode(nil, src)` will compress `src` and return the compressed result. +It is possible to provide a destination buffer. +If the buffer has a capacity of `s2.MaxEncodedLen(len(src))` it will be used. +If not a new will be allocated. + +Alternatively `EncodeBetter`/`EncodeBest` can also be used for better, but slightly slower compression. + +Similarly to decompress a block you can use `dst, err := s2.Decode(nil, src)`. +Again an optional destination buffer can be supplied. +The `s2.DecodedLen(src)` can be used to get the minimum capacity needed. +If that is not satisfied a new buffer will be allocated. + +Block function always operate on a single goroutine since it should only be used for small payloads. + +# Commandline tools + +Some very simply commandline tools are provided; `s2c` for compression and `s2d` for decompression. + +Binaries can be downloaded on the [Releases Page](https://github.com/klauspost/compress/releases). + +Installing then requires Go to be installed.

The stream will be distributed among all available CPU cores for the best possible throughput. + +A "better" compression mode is also available. This allows to trade a bit of speed for a minor compression gain. +The content compressed in this mode is fully compatible with the standard decoder. + +Snappy vs S2 **compression** speed on 16 core (32 thread) computer, using all threads and a single thread (1 CPU): + +| File | S2 speed | S2 Throughput | S2 % smaller | S2 "better" | "better" throughput | "better" % smaller | +|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------|---------------|--------------|-------------|---------------------|--------------------| +| [rawstudio-mint14.tar](https://files.klauspost.com/compress/rawstudio-mint14.7z) | 12.70x | 10556 MB/s | 7.35% | 4.15x | 3455 MB/s | 12.79% | +| (1 CPU) | 1.14x | 948 MB/s | - | 0.42x | 349 MB/s | - | +| [github-june-2days-2019.json](https://files.klauspost.com/compress/github-june-2days-2019.json.zst) | 17.13x | 14484 MB/s | 31.60% | 10.09x | 8533 MB/s | 37.71% | +| (1 CPU) | 1.33x | 1127 MB/s | - | 0.70x | 589 MB/s | - | +| [github-ranks-backup.bin](https://files.klauspost.com/compress/github-ranks-backup.bin.zst) | 15.14x | 12000 MB/s | -5.79% | 6.59x | 5223 MB/s | 5.80% | +| (1 CPU) | 1.11x | 877 MB/s | - | 0.47x | 370 MB/s | - | +| [consensus.db.10gb](https://files.klauspost.com/compress/consensus.db.10gb.zst) | 14.62x | 12116 MB/s | 15.90% | 5.35x | 4430 MB/s | 16.08% | +| (1 CPU) | 1.38x | 1146 MB/s | - | 0.38x | 312 MB/s | - | +| [adresser.json](https://files.klauspost.com/compress/adresser.json.zst) | 8.83x | 17579 MB/s | 43.86% | 6.54x | 13011 MB/s | 47.23% | +| (1 CPU) | 1.14x | 2259 MB/s | - | 0.74x | 1475 MB/s | - | +| [gob-stream](https://files.klauspost.com/compress/gob-stream.7z) | 16.72x | 14019 MB/s | 24.02% | 10.11x | 8477 MB/s | 30.48% | +| (1 CPU) | 1.24x | 1043 MB/s | - | 0.70x | 586 MB/s | - | +| [10gb.tar](http://mattmahoney.net/dc/10gb.html) | 13.33x | 9254 MB/s | 1.84% | 6.75x | 4686 MB/s | 6.72% | +| (1 CPU) | 0.97x | 672 MB/s | - | 0.53x | 366 MB/s | - | +| sharnd.out.2gb | 2.11x | 12639 MB/s | 0.01% | 1.98x | 11833 MB/s | 0.01% | +| (1 CPU) | 0.93x | 5594 MB/s | - | 1.34x | 8030 MB/s | - | +| [enwik9](http://mattmahoney.net/dc/textdata.html) | 19.34x | 8220 MB/s | 3.98% | 7.87x | 3345 MB/s | 15.82% | +| (1 CPU) | 1.06x | 452 MB/s | - | 0.50x | 213 MB/s | - | +| [silesia.tar](http://sun.aei.polsl.pl/~sdeor/corpus/silesia.zip) | 10.48x | 6124 MB/s | 5.67% | 3.76x | 2197 MB/s | 12.60% | +| (1 CPU) | 0.97x | 568 MB/s | - | 0.46x | 271 MB/s | - | +| [enwik10](https://encode.su/threads/3315-enwik10-benchmark-results) | 21.07x | 9020 MB/s | 6.36% | 6.91x | 2959 MB/s | 16.95% | +| (1 CPU) | 1.07x | 460 MB/s | - | 0.51x | 220 MB/s | - | + +### Legend + +* `S2 speed`: Speed of S2 compared to Snappy, using 16 cores and 1 core. +* `S2 throughput`: Throughput of S2 in MB/s. +* `S2 % smaller`: How many percent of the Snappy output size is S2 better. +* `S2 "better"`: Speed when enabling "better" compression mode in S2 compared to Snappy. +* `"better" throughput`: Speed when enabling "better" compression mode in S2 compared to Snappy. +* `"better" % smaller`: How many percent of the Snappy output size is S2 better when using "better" compression. + +There is a good speedup across the board when using a single thread and a significant speedup when using multiple threads. + +Machine generated data gets by far the biggest compression boost, with size being being reduced by up to 45% of Snappy size. + +The "better" compression mode sees a good improvement in all cases, but usually at a performance cost. + +Incompressible content (`sharnd.out.2gb`, 2GB random data) sees the smallest speedup. +This is likely dominated by synchronization overhead, which is confirmed by the fact that single threaded performance is higher (see above). + +## Decompression + +S2 attempts to create content that is also fast to decompress, except in "better" mode where the smallest representation is used. + +S2 vs Snappy **decompression** speed.
