Are there benchmarks of Java LZO vs. Deflate vs. Gzip available? [closed]

Question

The (very outdated) page for LZO contains a link to a Java implementation. There is also the vague promise of "New ... Java ... interfaces ... sometime in the near future.", but I believe that has been there for a few years.

This makes me think that the old LZO Java implementation may have been slow. Are there any benchmarks measuring the performance, as well as its relative performance to other compressors (eg, deflate)?

Answer 1

There's a relatively new project: https://github.com/ning/jvm-compressor-benchmark which compares deflate, and while LZO is not included, adding driver for it should be easy.

Answer 2

I have ported the latest minilzo.c to java. Initial version is at http://code.google.com/p/java-compress/. Shortly I will adding java based benchmarks for my port.
