pygipfeli 0.1.0

Python bindings for Google's Gipfeli compressor

Gipfeli, a high-speed compression library.



Introduction

============



Gipfeli is a high-speed compression/decompression library

aiming at slightly higher compression ratios (around 30 %

less bytes produced for text) than other high-speed compression

libraries. On a single core of a Core i7 processor in

64-bit mode, gipfeli compresses at about 180 MB/s or more

and decompresses at about 300 MB/s, typically 5x faster than

zlib, but does not quite achieve its compression density.



Gipfeli is written in C++, with no assembler code.
