[jira] [Assigned] (HADOOP-13578) Add Codec for ZStandard Compression

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-13578?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Thanks for posting a patch!  Some comments after a quick look, I'll try to get a more thorough look later this week:

The BUILDING.txt addition must have been copied from snappy, since a lot of it still refers to snappy. ;-)

There's a TODO in the code that should get sorted out:
{code}
   // TODO:RG Figure out the overhead, right now keeping it similar to zlib
{code}

Shouldn't this come from IO_COMPRESSION_CODEC_ZSTD_LEVEL_DEFAULT that's already in the config keys?
{code}
@VisibleForTesting static final int DEFAULT_COMPRESSION_LEVEL = 2;
{code}

Speaking of default compression level, could you elaborate on why level 2 was chosen?  The zstd CLI defaults to level 3.
