Why is the compression rate of the ANS algorithm not good?It is even worse than LZ4.

Hi. Are you referring to the compression throughput rate (GB/s) or the compression ratio? Could you provide an example of data and code where you're expecting different results? Is there a particular reason that you expect ANS to perform better than LZ4 for that data?
