Slow level 0 "compression"
dktapps opened this issue · comments
Level 0 libdeflate_deflate_compress is strangely slow, much slower than zlib.
It spends most of its time in deflate_compress_lazy_generic, doing what I have no idea, since it should just be adding a header and a footer as far as I can tell.
Tested with payloads of 250x NUL bytes.
This suggests that you are not actually using level 0. Please ensure that you are really passing 0 to libdeflate_alloc_compressor().
Sorry, you are correct, I had a bug in my code :)
