["T Jake Luciani (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-5038?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

T Jake Luciani updated CASSANDRA-5038:
--------------------------------------

    Description: 
LZ4 is a new compression algo that's ~2x faster than Snappy.

[~jpountz] has written a nice java port which includes a misc.Unsafe version that performs >= than our java snappy version.

Details at http://blog.jpountz.net/post/28092106032/wow-lz4-is-fast

The nice thing is this should work with java7 and be more portable.
We can also fallback the pure java impl
