    I created this project to understand how different programming languages and their zip libraries perform when handling large-scale PDF compression tasks.

    Key findings from benchmarking 30,000 PDFs (8.56 GB):

    - Node.js implementations are fastest (<1 minute)

    - Most implementations achieve ~17% compression

    - C++ libzip shows best compression (54.92%) but slowest execution

    - Interesting memory usage variations (23MB to 8.6GB)

    All implementations are currently single-threaded. Planning to add multi-threading support and optimized compression configurations in future updates.

    Feedback and contributions welcome!
