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