Announcing C-Blosc2 2.15.1

A fast, compressed and persistent binary data store library for C.

What is new?

This is a maintenance release in which we are fixing calling instructions more advanced than available in current CPU, causing a SIGKILL. Furthermore, a new b2nd_nans function has been added. In addition, the internal LZ4 sources were updated to 1.10.0 and some other improvements were made.

For more info, please see the release notes in:

Also, there is blog post introducing the most relevant changes in Blosc2:

What is it?

Blosc2 is a high performance data container optimized for binary data. It builds on the shoulders of Blosc, the high performance meta-compressor (https://github.com/Blosc/c-blosc).

Blosc2 expands the capabilities of Blosc by providing a higher lever container that is able to store many chunks on it (hence the super-block name). It supports storing data on both memory and disk using the same API. Also, it adds more compressors and filters.
