The new interface of the backward reference search
function makes it possible to use it in a streaming
manner.
Using the advanced cost model and static dictionary
can be turned on/off by template parameters.
The distance short codes are now computed as part of
the backward reference search.
Added a faster version of the Hasher.
This commit contains a batch of changes that were made to the Brotli
compression algorithm in the last month. Most important changes:
* Format change: don't push distances representing static dictionary words to the distance cache.
* Fix decoder invalid memory access bug caused by building a non-complete Huffman tree.
* Add a mode parameter to the encoder interface.
* Use different hashers for text and font mode.
* Add a heuristics to the hasher for skipping non-compressible data.
* Exhaustive search of static dictionary during backward reference search.
This commit contains a batch of changes that were made to the Brotli
compression algorithm in the last month. Most important changes:
* Updated spec
* Changed Huffman code length alphabet to use run length codes more
efficiently, based on a suggestion by Robert Obryk
* Changed encoding of the number of Huffman code lengths (HLEN)
* Changed encoding of the number of Huffman trees (NTREES)
* Added support for uncompressed meta-blocks
This commit contains a batch of changes that were made to the Brotli
compression algorithm in the last three weeks. Most important changes:
* Added UTF8 context model for good text compression.
* Simplified context modeling by having only 4 context modes.
* Per-block context mode selection.
* Faster backward copying and bit reading functions.
* More efficient histogram coding.
* Streaming support for the decoder and encoder.
