Description-en: LZ4 compression and decompression in pure Go
This library implements reading and writing lz4 compressed data (a frame),
as specified in
http://fastcompression.blogspot.fr/2013/04/lz4-streaming-format-final.html,
using an io.Reader (decompression) and io.Writer (compression). It is
designed to minimize memory usage while maximizing throughput by being
able to [de]compress data concurrently.
