Comparing liblzf/Changes (file contents):
Revision 1.27 by root, Fri Feb 16 22:13:43 2007 UTC vs.
Revision 1.33 by root, Tue Nov 13 10:41:52 2007 UTC

1 - switched to GPL v2 or any later version.
2 - speed up compression by ~10-15% in common cases
3 by some manual unrolling.
4 - import some compiler tricks from JSON::XS.
5 - tune hash functions depending on ULTRA_FAST or VERY_FAST settings.
6 - for typical binary data (e.g. /bin/bash, memory dumps,
7 canterbury corpus etc.), speed is now comparable to fastlz, but
8 with better compression ratio. with ULTRA_FAST, it's typically
9 3-8% faster than fastlz while still maintaining a similar ratio.
10 (amd64, ymmv). thanks a lot for the competition :)
11 - undo inline assembly, it is no longer helpful.

14 - switched to a 2-clause bsd license with GPL exception.
15 - get rid of memcpy.
16 - tentatively use rep movsb on x86 and x86_64 (gcc only) for a
17 moderate speed improvement.
18 - applied patch by Kein-Hong Man to maske lzf.c compile under
19 the crippled mingw32 environment.
