Why compress? It's ancient technology and will be vastly outperformed
Yes, gzip or bzip2 compress better, but they also: * Are a lot slower. * Use a lot more data memory. * Require a lot more code.
Also some nasty person has a software patent on compress...
That was over 20 years ago; the patent expired already. Cheers, Tim Kientzle _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
