⬅ Download proof of concept
This is a proof of concept micro-benchmark compressing the
37_640 bytes symbol from the bug report linked above with both
id_compress from the dmd backend and lz4 (without dictionary).
The lz4 result is additionally transformed to 7-bits similar to
base-64.
Original size: 37640 bytes
id_compress : 5243 ms for 10_000 iterations, 800 bytes
lz4 : 71 ms for 10_000 iterations, 389 bytes
That roughly corresponds to a 2x higher compression ratio at
70x faster compression speed.
Please submit a PR.
