Announcing C-Blosc2 2.15.0

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

What is new?

This is a minor release in which a new io mode was added to memory-map files. Furthermore, the io_cb read API was changed, so the SOVERSION was bumped. In addition, the internal zstd sources were updated to 1.5.6 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.
