Compression
|
||
|
|
===========
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The library contains a compression routine, called LiZaRd. It is
|
||
|
|
modified Lempel-Ziv 77 method with slightly worse compression ratio,
|
||
|
|
but with faster compression and decompression (compression is few times
|
||
|
|
faster than zlib, decompression is slightly slower than memcpy()).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The data format and inspiration for code comes from the LZO project
|
||
|
|
(which couldn't be used due to licence problems). They might be
|
||
|
|
compatible, but no-one tested that.
