  Description     : Fast Java compressor/decompressor, port of Snappy

 Java port of Snappy, a fast compresser/decompresser written in C++,
 originally developed by Google. 
 .
 Snappy's main target is very high-speed compression/decompression with
 reasonable compression size. So the compression ratio of snappy-java is
 modest and about the same as LZF (ranging 20%-100% according to the
 dataset). 
 .
 This version of the Java library is not the latest upstream version
 but it has an ABI which is used by picard-tools package and was finally
 packaged exactly for the purpose to support ppicard-tools.
