I can't stand misleading charts

The axis on the charts don't start at zero, so it makes it look like gzip is ~20x slower than zstd, when it is only 3x slower. Plus, the main comparison would be lz4 or lzjb, not gzip.

zstd looks awesome enough without having misleading chart - great performance and compression ratio.
