Pure rust compression
marshallpierce opened this issue · comments
flate2 is fast, but it would be nice to have a default pure rust compression library so we wouldn't need to have the serialization feature stuff.
Presumably this would go along with allowing the user to specify which compression option to use, perhaps via generifying on the compressor.
Can't we just use https://github.com/sile/libflate or https://github.com/oyvindln/deflate-rs ?
Yep, almost certainly, though flate2 is faster by a fair bit. Just a simple matter of programming. :)
