				Blosc is a high performance 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 is the first compressor (that I'm aware of)
				that is meant not only to reduce the size of large datasets on-disk or
				in-memory, but also to accelerate memory-bound computations.
