[Bela Ban (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-1357?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12625138#comment-12625138 ] 

Bela Ban commented on JGRP-1357:
--------------------------------

snappy is (a) an external JAR and (b) written in C/C++. I don't want to introduce any dependencies or C code.

However, you can write your own compression protocol using snappy and make JGroups use it by simply adding your protocol to the config.

> Snappy is a really fast compression algorithm compared to zip.
