Description : SLZ is a fast and memory-less stream compressor which produces an output that
: can be decompressed with zlib or gzip. It does not implement decompression at
: all, zlib is perfectly fine for this.
:
: The purpose is to use SLZ in situations where a zlib-compatible stream is
: needed and zlib's resource usage would be too high while the compression ratio
: is not critical. The typical use case is in HTTP servers and gateways which
: have to compress many streams in parallel with little CPU resources to assign
: to this task, and without having to limit the compression ratio due to the
: memory usage. In such an environment, the server's memory usage can easily be
: divided by 10 and the CPU usage by 3.
