It outperforms zstd by a long shot... on natural language, like wikipedia articles or markdown documents, but... it's about as good as zstd or worse than zstd on things like files in the Kubernetes source repository.

The usual suspects so far: compression (flate2, zstd)... identified as a source of blocking that tanks throughput and latency.
