title: Is CloudFlare fork of zlib optimized only for amd?
body: <p>I extensively use zlib for storing compressed data. While reading data most of the time is spent in inflate_fast and crc32 zlib calls. I am exploring alternatives to speed-up decompression and have two candidates, ipp_zlib from Intel and zlib fork from CloudFlare. I would like to know:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p>Is CloudFlare fork tuned only for AMD processors ? I see that related branch is tagged with 'amd64' at <a href="https://github.com/cloudflare/zlib/branches" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/cloudflare/zlib/branches</a>. I have Intel CPUs, so amd64 won't serve the purpose.</p></li>
  <li><p>Whether I need to rewrite data to use CloudFlare version ? If yes, then I will have to ignore this library.</p></li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>I tried getting both libraries for my Linux machine, but don't see easy way i.e. download link. If anyone installed above, please share instructions to download and build.</p>
