We're excited to share that Firefox now uses zlib-rs for gzip (de)compression. This has both performance and safety advantages, but it took a while to get zlib-rs into production. Read why: trifectatech.org/blog/zlib-rs...

zlib-rs in Firefox - Trifecta Tech Foundation
As of 151.0.0, Firefox uses zlib-rs for gzip (de)compression. This is very exciting, and has both performance and safety advantages.

Rust-Written Zlib-rs Is Not Only Safer But Now Outperforming Zlib C Implementations
Zlib-rs as a Rust programming language implementation of the Zlib file format for better safety is now beginning to outperform the C implementations of the widely-used Zlib.

Pillow 11.1.0 is out!
One of the cool updates is we're using zlib-ng 2.2.2 instead of zlib 1.2.8/1.3.1, which is more than twice as fast at saving PNGs at higher compression levels.
