Velocity/native/README.md

velocity-natives

This directory contains native acceleration code for Velocity, along with traditional Java fallbacks.

Compression

• Supported platforms: macOS 10.13, Linux amd64 (precompiled binary is built on Debian 9 with JDK 8)
• Rationale: Using a native zlib wrapper, we can avoid multiple trips into Java just to copy memory around.

Encryption

• No natives available yet, this will use the support inside your Java install.

OS support

If you are on Alpine Linux, apk add libc6-compat will enable native support.
