Attention

GPU users: GPU nodes run EL9, while this documentation still reflects the EL7 software stack.

Run module avail on an EL9 login node, or within an interactive session on the relevant GPU type, to see the software available.

The documentation will be updated once all nodes have migrated to EL9.

zstd

Zstandard is a real-time compression algorithm, providing high compression ratios. It offers a very wide range of compression/speed trade-off, while being backed by a very fast decoder. It also offers a special mode for small data, called dictionary compression, and can create dictionaries from any sample set.

After connecting to Stanage (see Establishing a SSH connection), start an interactive session with the following command:

srun --pty bash -i

A version of zstd can then be made available with one of the following:

module load zstd/1.5.2-GCCcore-12.2.0
module load zstd/1.5.2-GCCcore-11.3.0
module load zstd/1.5.0-GCCcore-11.2.0
module load zstd/1.4.9-GCCcore-10.3.0
module load zstd/1.4.5-GCCcore-10.2.0
module load zstd/1.4.4-GCCcore-9.3.0

Notes

zstd was installed using Easybuild, build details can be found in $EBROOTZSTD/easybuild with a given module loaded.
