Praveen Nishchal commented on LUCENE-8739:
------------------------------------------

As we observed earlier, Zstd is at par with vanilla/Cloudflare zlib in terms of 
compression ratio but at the same time, there is a significant gain in 
retrieval time. I have made the default compression level as 6 (though it is a 
configurable parameter), with 48KB block size and 8KB dictionary. Any 
additional comments?

This solution is part of custom codec and will allow users to use ZSTD on their 
data. However, we can revisit the idea of adding it to Lucene core in the 
future when Project Panama lands.
