Name        : snappy
Product     : Fedora 16
Version     : 1.0.4
Release     : 1.fc16
URL         : http://code.google.com/p/snappy/
Summary     : Fast compression and decompression library
Description :
Snappy is a compression/decompression library. It does not aim for maximum
compression, or compatibility with any other compression library; instead, it
aims for very high speeds and reasonable compression. For instance, compared to
the fastest mode of zlib, Snappy is an order of magnitude faster for most
inputs, but the resulting compressed files are anywhere from 20% to 100%
bigger.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

The new upstream release fixes a couple of issues and somewhat speeds up the decompressor.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.  Use 
su -c 'yum update snappy' at the command line.
