A poor entropy coding result in Zstandard

I would not write this as failure of zstd.

There are no comments on particular command line usage of respective compression algorithm frontends.

zstd has higher compression levels that near LZMA and you can additionally train a specific dictionary to be used in compressing particular kind files.

I tried on all zstd compression levels, all perform poorly. (author of blog post here)
