            Bug ID: 137308
           Summary: use of fast zstandard as zip-format in odt
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium

zstandard is a fast compression archive format available as zip-Container since
Data Version 6.3.8

It is much faster than older compression zip formats.

And dictionary compression is for text applications ideal.

Zstandard is a fast compression algorithm, providing high compression ratios.
It also offers a special mode for small data, called dictionary compression.
The reference library offers a very wide range of speed / compression
trade-off, and is backed by an extremely fast decoder (see benchmarks below).
Zstandard library is provided as open source software using a BSD license. Its
format is stable and published as IETF RFC 8478


There is no recovery record like winrar or parchive but it is faster.
