Lzma. I did a simple test, same payload repeated with a gap. Lzma ruled it.

|gap |gzip |bz2 |lzma | |---------|----------|-----|--------| |0 |2.7% |18.9%|*0.9%*| |8 KB |2.4% |17.8%|0.9% | |*40 KB*|*94.4%* |17.7%|0.4% | |1 MB |*104.3%*|19.7%|*0.9%*|

HN doesn’t support Markdown tables. You can prepend two spaces to show it in monospace though.

I don’t see zstd in your comparison?

    dont know the point of the table, but here it is:

      |gap      |gzip      |bz2  |lzma    | 
  |---------|----------|-----|--------|
  |0        |2.7%      |18.9%|  *0.9%*| 
  |8 KB     |2.4%      |17.8%|   0.9% |
  |*40 KB*  |*94.4%*   |17.7%|   0.4% |
  |1 MB     |*104.3%*  |19.7%|  *0.9%*|
