+     "Blosc is a high performance compressor optimized for binary data. It has
+been designed to transmit data to the processor cache faster than the
+traditional, non-compressed, direct memory fetch approach via a
+@code{memcpy()} system call.  Blosc is meant not only to reduce the size of
+large datasets on-disk or in-memory, but also to accelerate memory-bound
+computations.")
