Great to see innovation but unless your personal compression method is somehow better (very fast with excellent compression) then would it not be a better idea to use an existing (leading edge) compression method ? 7-Zip's (http://www.7-zip.org/) 'newest' methods are LZMA and PPMD (http://www.7-zip.org/7z.html). There is a "proprietary license" for LZMA that _might_ interest Sun but PPMD is "no explicit license" see this link: Using PPMD for compression http://www.codeproject.com/KB/recipes/ppmd.aspx Rob This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
