A ZSAV file is an IBM SPSS Statistics dataset whose data is compressed with zlib; otherwise it holds the same as a SAV file.
An Arrow IPC file holds a data table in Apache Arrow's in-memory columnar layout, so it can be memory-mapped and read without conversion. Feather version 2 files are the same format.
