any idea how igzip's non-QAT path compares to zlib-ng[1]?

You can use TurboBench [1] to benchmark igzip, zlib-ng and others.

Download TurbBench from Releases [2]

Here Some Benchmarks:

It's fairly easy to check for yourself, but with local builds on a desktop CPU without QAT, compressing a 150MB JSON input, with igzip and minigzip (from zlib-ng) both producing a smaller output than gzip, gzip needs 1.187s, minigzip needs 0.665s, and igzip needs 0.313s.
