+ZSTD_adapt is a compression tool targeted at optimizing performance across network connections. The tool aims at sensing network speeds and adapting compression level based on network or pipe speeds.
+In many scenarios, using ZSTD without a properly adjusted compression level results in a pipe bottleneck, or a compressed file that could have been reduced in size.
