/* Approach to just fitting a requested compressed size:
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
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.
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.
