Hello!

Thanks for your answer, Otto.

...

What do you mean by "not final in RocksDB"?

I mean the MyRocks option "ZSTDNotFinal" instead of the regular option "ZSTD". I guess Facebook used ZSTDNotFinal before ZSTD reached 1.0?

...

We have work in progress to upstream this support to the upstream MariaDB 10.5 so that users would have the option to choose these whenever they want.

This would be most appreciated.

My company currently has no support contract with mariadb.com. I will probably put some more effort into compiling from source before considering other options.

If you are a coder and want to spend development time yourself, then I suggest you contribute to the PR review instead of spending time building sources and maintaining repositories of your own.
