Context: static.wiki and Show HN post
We downloaded static.wiki's 40.3 GiB SQLite database of English Wikipedia and created a compressed version of it with sqlite_zstd_vfs, our read/write Zstandard compression layer for SQLite3. The compressed version is 10.4 GiB (26%), and the VFS supports HTTP random access in the spirit of the original (although we don't yet have a WebAssembly build; it's a library for CLI & desktop apps for now). You can try it out on Linux or macOS x86-64:
pip3 install genomicsqlite
genomicsqlite https://f000.backblazeb2.com/file/mlin-public/static.wiki/en.zstd.db \
"select text from wiki_articles where title = 'SQLite'"
