[jira] [Updated] (ORC-639) Improve zstd compression performance
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ORC-639?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Ion Gaztañaga updated ORC-639:
------------------------------
Issue Type: Improvement (was: Bug)
> Improve zstd compression performance
> ------------------------------------
>
> Key: ORC-639
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ORC-639
> Project: ORC
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: C++, compression
> Affects Versions: 1.6.3
> Reporter: Ion Gaztañaga
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: performance
>
> In Compression.cc, classes ZSTDCompressionStream and ZSTDDecompressionStream employ Zstd's "Simple API", which initializes the compression/decompression context each time. This context initialization includes time to initialize all compression/decompression tables.
>
> Using the "Explicit context" API improves the performance significantly as compression/decompression tables are constructed once and reused each time "decompress" or "doBlockCompression" is called.
> We've noticed more than 15% time improvement in some applications with this change, so it seems that any ORC user using Zstd can benefit from this change.
