Re: Regression of speed in lzip-1.25-rc1

How do you clear caches between runs?   I dont. I want it to be independent of 
I/O, not dependent. I dont want to test my system, I want to test a program.   
I did it in tmpfs, essentially ram disk, to not be influenced by disk 
read/write.  Compression is already slow, in comparison to I/O, and doing in in 
ram makes it even more independent, therefore unbiased by I/O.  Decompression 
was done with test command, so no writing was performed.
