| 28 | /* What type of attribute compression should the MUSH use? |
|---|
| 29 | * Your options are: |
|---|
| 30 | * 1 - the default Huffman compression which has been in use for a |
|---|
| 31 | * long time. In theory, this should be the best compression, |
|---|
| 32 | * possibly at the cost of some speed. It is also 8-bit clean, |
|---|
| 33 | * and thus suitable for locales that use extended character sets. |
|---|
| 34 | * Sometimes has trouble on some linux systems for some reason. |
|---|
| 35 | * 2 - Same as 1, for backwards compability. |
|---|
| 36 | * 3 - Nick Gammon's word-based compression algorithm. |
|---|
| 37 | * In theory, this should be considerably faster than Huffman |
|---|
| 38 | * when decompressing, and considerably slower when compressing. |
|---|
| 39 | * (But you decompress a lot more often). Compression ratio |
|---|
| 40 | * is worse than Huffman for small dbs (<1.5Mb of text), but |
|---|
| 41 | * better for larger dbs. |
|---|
| 42 | * 4 - Raevnos's almost 8-bit clean version of the word-based algorithm. |
|---|
| 43 | * Prefer 3 unless you need extended characters. This algorithm |
|---|
| 44 | * can encode all characters except 0x06. |
|---|
| 45 | * 0 - No compression at all. Very fast, but your db in memory |
|---|
| 46 | * will be big - at least as large as your on-disk db. |
|---|
| 47 | * Possibly suitable for the building stages of a small MUSH. |
|---|
| 48 | * This should be 8-bit clean, too. |
|---|
| 49 | * You can change this at any time, with no worries. It only affects |
|---|
| 50 | * the in-memory compression of attribute/mail text, not the disk |
|---|
| 51 | * db compression. Recommend to keep it at 1. When in doubt, try them |
|---|
| 52 | * all, and check @uptime's memory usage stats for the most efficient |
|---|
| 53 | * choice among those that are stable for you. When using word-based |
|---|
| 54 | * compression, you can also #define COMP_STATS to get some detailed |
|---|
| 55 | * information in @stats/tables. |
