Compressione JSONL: gzip vs zstd vs Brotli

import gzip

# === gzip ===

# Decompress

# or: gunzip data.jsonl.gz

# === zstd ===
# Install: brew install zstd / apt install zstd

zstd -3 data.jsonl                 # level 3 (default)

# Decompress
zstd -d data.jsonl.zst
# or: unzstd data.jsonl.zst

# === Brotli ===
# Install: brew install brotli / apt install brotli
brotli data.jsonl                  # -> data.jsonl.br
brotli -q 6 data.jsonl             # quality 6
brotli -q 11 data.jsonl            # max compression

# Decompress
brotli -d data.jsonl.br

# === Piping with jq ===
# Compress filtered JSONL
cat data.jsonl | jq -c 'select(.level == "error")' | gzip > errors.jsonl.gz

# Decompress and count lines
zstd -dc data.jsonl.zst | wc -l
