Nice results, I will keep a watch on this! Would be interesting to see benchmarks vs Oodle compression, I think the most similar one is Selkie?
misa77 and oodle are both supported in turbobench (see: https://github.com/powturbo/turbobench), so it's easy to compare them.
Results on the silesia corpus on the same Intel setup described in the README, using turbobench:
