Worked on the facebook/zstd repository to deliver five performance-focused features over two months, targeting ARM and AArch64 architectures. Developed SVE2-accelerated histogram computation and SIMD-optimized decoding paths in C, leveraging Neon intrinsics and low-level algorithm design to improve decompression throughput and energy efficiency on modern ARM CPUs. Enhanced testability by adding unit tests for edge cases and refactoring code to support better coverage. Improved CI/CD efficiency by optimizing QEMU-based AArch64 SVE2 builds with advanced build flags. The work emphasized maintainability, performance optimization, and robust software testing, resulting in faster data processing and more reliable ARM-targeted code paths.

Jun 1, 2025June 2025 (facebook/zstd): Focused on ARM performance and correctness improvements. Implemented SVE2-based histogram computation with accompanying unit tests for HIST_count_wksp edge cases, and consolidated AArch64/Neoverse V2 optimizations across copy, Huffman decoding, and ZSTD_decodeSequence to boost decompression throughput on modern ARM CPUs. These changes deliver measurable performance gains, improved stability, and stronger test coverage, contributing to faster data processing and better energy efficiency in large-scale workloads.
