> Compressing QOI with something like LZ4 would generally outperform PNG.

https://github.com/nigeltao/qoir has some numbers comparing QOIR (which is QOI-inspired-with-LZ4) vs PNG.

QOIR has better decode speed and comparable compression ratio (depending on which PNG encoder you use).

QOIR's numbers are also roughly similar to ZPNG.
