LZFSE is a compression library introduced by Apple.
LZFSE is a Lempel-Ziv style data compression algorithm using Finite State Entropy coding. It targets similar compression rates at higher compression and decompression speed compared to deflate using zlib.

Apple uses LZFSE compressing its ipa packages.
I downloaded an ipa directly from appstore, named like pre-thinned xxx .thinned.signed.dpkg.ipa, e.g. pre-thinned12345678.thinned.signed.dpkg.ipa
I tried to decompress this ipa, with unzip, 7-Zip on windows, many many other archiver management tools, all failed.
