A Metadata with the same content is stored in JSON and XML format, and Thermo QE and SCIEX TOF generate the files. File size increased by about 65% when transferred from JSON to XML for SCIEX TOF files and 1.7 times for Thermo QE files. B The principle of the ZDPD algorithm. C The compression size is compared with Zlib using each compression algorithm. The ratio increases as the accuracy improve. The ZDPD algorithm shows the best performance. D The encoding time for each algorithm. Due to SIMD support, the FastPfor algorithm is high-speed. E The decoding time for each algorithm. Decoding time is one of the most critical parameters in the computation-oriented process. Although ZDPD is not the fastest, the ZDPD algorithm's performance is the most balanced when combining the compression rate and decoding speed rate
