Package compression benchmarks for zstd vs gzip
Can't speak for Jeroen, but it sounds like it's worth adding support
for tar.zstd package files, just like how tar.gz, tar.xz, and
tar.bzip2 are currently supported. I'd also argue for support zstd
compression throughout R, including adding zstdfile(), support for
saveRDS(..., compress = "zstd"), and so on. Then it could be discussed
later what the default(s) should be.
It's probably also worth looking at package compression with 'xz'
compression. In [1], Mike FC has a graph where 'bzip2' and 'xz' seem
to...

all the time when saving large objects, using code I adapted from [2].
Is your suggestion to import the libraries/source code into base?
