What is Snappy-Java?

Snappy-Java is a Java port of the "snappy", a fast C++ compresser/decompresser developed by Google.

Main features of Snappy-Java:

• Fast compression/decompression tailored to 64-bit CPU architecture.
• JNI-based implementation to achieve comparable performance to the native C++ version.
• Although snappy-java uses JNI, it can be used safely with multiple class loaders (e.g. Tomcat, etc.).
• Portable across various operating systems; Snappy-java contains native libraries built for Window/Mac/Linux (32/64-bit). At runtime, snappy-java loads one of these libraries according to your machine environment (It looks system properties, os.name and os.arch).
• Simple usage. Add the snappy-java-(version).jar file to your classpath. Then call compression/decompression methods in org.xerial.snappy.Snappy.
