[~rdblue] joining as well with our interest in this feature. Can we expect in
what Parquet version will it be available? Brotli demonstrates supreme
compression rates with low CPU consumption, and that can benefit a lot of
users. We know that it will benefit our use case as well.

> 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.
