> The zlib library supports the ability to perform two types of flushes when 
> deflating data. It can perform both a Z_SYNC_FLUSH, which forces all input to 
> be written as output and byte-aligned and resets the Huffman coding, and it 
> also supports a Z_FULL_FLUSH, which does the same thing but additionally 
> resets the compression dictionary.  The Hadoop wrapper for the zlib library 
> does not support either of these two methods.
> Adding support should be fairly trivial.  An additional deflate method that 
> takes a fourth "flush" parameter, and a modification to the native c code to 
> accept this fourth parameter and pass it along to the zlib library.  I can 
> submit a patch for this if desired.
> It should be noted that the native SUN Java API is likewise missing this 
> functionality, as has been noted for over a decade here: 
> http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4206909
