14 | /* Approach to just fitting a requested compressed size:
|
---|
15 |
|
---|
16 | fitblk performs three compression passes on a portion of the input
|
---|
17 | data in order to determine how much of that input will compress to
|
---|
18 | nearly the requested output block size. The first pass generates
|
---|
19 | enough deflate blocks to produce output to fill the requested
|
---|
20 | output size plus a specfied excess amount (see the EXCESS define
|
---|
21 | below). The last deflate block may go quite a bit past that, but
|
---|
22 | is discarded. The second pass decompresses and recompresses just
|
---|
23 | the compressed data that fit in the requested plus excess sized
|
---|
24 | buffer. The deflate process is terminated after that amount of
|
---|
25 | input, which is less than the amount consumed on the first pass.
|
---|
26 | The last deflate block of the result will be of a comparable size
|
---|
27 | to the final product, so that the header for that deflate block and
|
---|
28 | the compression ratio for that block will be about the same as in
|
---|
29 | the final product. The third compression pass decompresses the
|
---|
30 | result of the second step, but only the compressed data up to the
|
---|
31 | requested size minus an amount to allow the compressed stream to
|
---|
32 | complete (see the MARGIN define below). That will result in a
|
---|
33 | final compressed stream whose length is less than or equal to the
|
---|
34 | requested size. Assuming sufficient input and a requested size
|
---|
35 | greater than a few hundred bytes, the shortfall will typically be
|
---|
36 | less than ten bytes.
|
---|
37 |
|
---|
38 | If the input is short enough that the first compression completes
|
---|
39 | before filling the requested output size, then that compressed
|
---|
40 | stream is return with no recompression.
|
---|
41 |
|
---|
42 | EXCESS is chosen to be just greater than the shortfall seen in a
|
---|
43 | two pass approach similar to the above. That shortfall is due to
|
---|
44 | the last deflate block compressing more efficiently with a smaller
|
---|
45 | header on the second pass. EXCESS is set to be large enough so
|
---|
46 | that there is enough uncompressed data for the second pass to fill
|
---|
47 | out the requested size, and small enough so that the final deflate
|
---|
48 | block of the second pass will be close in size to the final deflate
|
---|
49 | block of the third and final pass. MARGIN is chosen to be just
|
---|
50 | large enough to assure that the final compression has enough room
|
---|
51 | to complete in all cases.
