Can you describe the characteristics and usage scenarios of this compression algorithm in detail?
And introduce that the warehouse you obtained is the official warehouse address.

bsc is a block-sorting compressor that supports GPU acceleration for sort transforms of order 5 to 8.

  • Characteristics: compresses remarkably well while maintaining relatively good throughput. Similar performance to XZ.
  • Usage scenarios: you want good compression and you have excess GPUs lying around. Archiving maybe?

These results are from compressing a 100 MB binary blob.

I assume that by "warehouse" you mean "repository", sorry if I interpreted wrong. I didn't find any research paper related to bsc, but the repo I used (https://github.com/IlyaGrebnov/libbsc) seems like the original and most "official" repo around.
