Announcing C-Blosc 1.21.5

A blocking, shuffling and lossless compression library for C

What is new?

This is a maintenance release. Here, we have provided a fix for a SSE2/AVX2 build issue. Thanks to Thomas VINCENT and Mark Kittisopikul.

For more info, please see the release notes in:

https://github.com/Blosc/c-blosc/blob/main/RELEASE_NOTES.rst

What is it?

Blosc (https://www.blosc.org) is a high performance meta-compressor optimized for binary data. It has been designed to transmit data to the processor cache faster than the traditional, non-compressed, direct memory fetch approach via a memcpy() OS call.

Blosc has internal support for different compressors like its internal BloscLZ, but also LZ4, LZ4HC, Snappy, Zlib and Zstd. This way these can automatically leverage the multithreading and pre-filtering (shuffling) capabilities that comes with Blosc.
