Disable all slow features for quality <= 9 (literal cost modeling,
dictionary, context modeling, advanced block splitting).
Change vector<Command> arguments of internal functions
to Command* and size_t.
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 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.
