*slow5lib* from version 0.3.0 onwards has built in [StreamVByte](https://github.com/lemire/streamvbyte) compression support to enable even smaller file sizes, which is applied to the raw signal by default when producing BLOW5 files. *zlib* compression is then applied by default to each SLOW5 record. If *zstd* is used instead of *zlib* on top of *StreamVByte*, it is similar to ONT's latest [vbz](https://github.com/nanoporetech/vbz_compression) compression. BLOW5 files with *zstd+StreamVByte* are still about 25% smaller than vbz compressed FAST5 files.
