4bbb8a48ad Add ZSTD_FORCE_DECOMPRESS_SEQUENCES_LONG
This macro forces behavior in the opposite direction.

df28e5babd Add ZSTD_DECOMPRESS_MINIMAL Macro, Which Reduces Branching of Decompress Variants 2018-12-18 13:36:39 -08:00

483759a3de Improves decompression speed when using cold dictionary
by triggering the prefetching decoder path
(which used to be dedicated to long-range offsets only).

Figures on my laptop :
no content prefetch : ~300 MB/s (for reference)
full content prefetch : ~325 MB/s (before this patch)
new prefetch path : ~375 MB/s (after this patch)

The benchmark speed is already significant,
but another side-effect is that this version
prefetch less data into memory,
since it only prefetches what's needed, instead of the full dictionary.

This is supposed to help highly active environments
such as active databases,
that can't be properly measured in benchmark environment (too clean).

Also :
fixed the largeNbDict test program
which was working improperly when setting nbBlocks > nbFiles.

20fb9e7f36 reduced assertion strength
one limit case can apparently be generated during fuzzer tests

9126da5b5c improve long-range decoder speed
on enwik9 at level 22 (which is almost a worst case scenario),
speed improves by +7% on my laptop (415 -> 445 MB/s)

450356b5af Merge branch 'dev' into decompressblock 2018-10-26 15:03:43 -07:00

2b4914082e created zstd_decompress_block module
isolate all logic associated with block decompression
into its own module.

zstd_decompress is still in charge
of context creation/destruction,
frames, headers, streaming, special blocks, etc.

Compressed blocks themselves are now handled within zstd_decompress_block .
