The tables below include metrics for the following configurations:
- ZFP (fixed-precision mode, 32 bits)
- ZFP (fixed-precision mode, 28 bits)
- ZFP (fixed-precision mode, 24 bits)
- ZFP (fixed-precision mode, 20 bits)
- ZFP (fixed-precision mode, 16 bits)
- ZFP (fixed-precision mode, 14 bits)
The compression ratio is computed as uncompressed size / compressed size. Higher is better.
