Details:
- Nippy will continue to support thawing OLD data that was originally compressed with Snappy.
- But Nippy will no longer support freezing NEW data with Snappy.
Motivation:
- The current Snappy implementation can cause JVM crashes in some cases [1].
- The only alternative JVM implementation that seems to be safe [2] uses JNI and
so would introduce possible incompatibility issues even for folks not using Snappy.
- Nippy already moved to the superior LZ4 as its default compression scheme in v2.7.0,
more than 9 years ago.
