Carlo Alberto Ferraris commented on HADOOP-13126:
-------------------------------------------------

[~rdblue] do you have any plans to continue working on this? We have workloads that would benefit from brotli (especially if the codec supported/exposed the higher compression levels)

> I've been testing [Brotli|https://github.com/google/brotli/], a new compression library based on LZ77 from Google. Google's [brotli benchmarks|https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/brotli/vignettes/brotli-2015-09-22.pdf] look really good and we're also seeing a significant improvement in compression size, compression speed, or both.

> Brotli, at quality 1, is as fast as snappy and ends up smaller than gzip-9. Another test resulted in a slightly larger Brotli file than gzip produced, but Brotli was 4x faster. I'd like to get this compression codec into Hadoop.
