oh, forgot to mention, zstd compression levels range 1-19 (further, yes but via extra option)... but guess where modern servers perform the best (best defined as ratio of compressed file size to bandwidth/sec)...
welp, it's zstd-1 and occasionally zstd-2. higher compression levels than that and the performance trade off in relation to file size is generally wasteful. but wait, what about if we use hardware compression accelerators... sure, and the result is the same but with higher bandwidth.
