No longer an issue. This was discussed at length at [1], with the
end result being an eventual relicensing of the project to dual
BSD/GPLv2 and the complete deletion of the offending PATENTS file.

Awesome, missed that.
A quick look at:
https://github.com/facebook/zstd/issues/77
says a pure decompressor might be ~45KB in size. Probably smaller
if code is tuned to a non modern superscalar CPU. Memory usage can
be tuned. Nice. Looking forward to modified implementations... how
long before someone here writes a pure Lua implementation? :-)
