Re: Compression of random binary data

[danceswithnumbers]

So if the theoretical min compression limit (log2(n)*(x)) has a 3% margin but 
your transform has a less than 3% inflate rate at most then there is room for 
the transform to compress below the theoretical min. With every transform the 
entropy changes, the potential for greater compression also changes, with each 
pass you can compress untill the entropy is so random it can no longer be 
comressed.
