Huffdic compression

Hi,

Is there any library or something else help me compress faster with Huffdic compression?

I see KindleUnpack can decompress huffdic compression so fast, then any chance to compress it fast too?

Regards.

You only need to compress it once, how much extra speed do you need?

Hi,

The reason that compression is so much slower that decompression, is that multiple passes over the entire text is required to create the "dictionaries" of common substrings needed for huffdic compression to work well. When decompressing, these dictionaries are given to you, so decompression can be done is just one pass.

Sorry,

KevinH
