ALP: Adaptive Lossless floating-Point Compression
Summary: Adaptive, lossless FP compression for IEEE 754 doubles; outperforms Gorilla, PDE, Elf, Patas, and Zstd in speed and ratio. Two-stage, vectorized: enhanced PseudoDecimals encodes decimals as integers; non-decimals use front-bit vector compression on row-groups and vectors (FastLanes).
