Snappier
A near-C++ performance implementation of the Snappy compression algorithm for .NET. Snappier is ported to C# directly from the official C++ implementation, with the addition of support for the framed stream format. By avoiding P/Invoke, Snappier is fully cross-platform and works on both Linux and Windows and against any CPU supported by .NET. However, Snappier performs best in .NET 6 and later on little-endian x86/64 processors with the help of System.Runtime.Instrinsics.
