Last I know, Calibre uses DOC (PalmDOC) compression for MOBI/AZW3. huffdic results in smaller files but it takes much, much longer than PalmDOC to create.
Code:
Usage : kindlegen [filename.opf/.htm/.html/.epub/.zip or directory] [-c0 or -c1 or c2] [-verbose] [-western] [-o <file name>]
Note:
zip formats are supported for XMDF and FB2 sources
directory formats are supported for XMDF sources
Options:
-c0: no compression
-c1: standard DOC compression
-c2: Kindle huffdic compression
