Remarks

LZ4_compress_fast() : Same as LZ4_compress_default(), but allows selection of "acceleration" factor. The larger the acceleration value, the faster the algorithm, but also the lesser the compression. It's a trade-off. It can be fine tuned, with each successive value providing roughly +~3% to speed. An acceleration value of "1" is the same as regular LZ4_compress_default() Values <= 0 will be replaced by LZ4_ACCELERATION_DEFAULT (currently == 1, see lz4.c). Values > LZ4_ACCELERATION_MAX will be replaced by LZ4_ACCELERATION_MAX (currently == 65537, see lz4.c).
