The *Compress::Zlib* module provides a Perl interface to the *zlib* compression library (see "AUTHOR" for details about where to get *zlib*). The "Compress::Zlib" module can be split into two general areas of functionality, namely a simple read/write...

The *Compress::Raw::Zlib* module provides a Perl interface to the *zlib* compression library (see "AUTHOR" for details about where to get *zlib*)....

This a pure perl implementation of Compress::Zlib's inflate API. Inflating deflated data Currently the only thing Compress::Zlib::Perl can do is inflate compressed data. A constructor and 3 methods from Compress::Zlib's interface are replicated: infl...

DEPRECATED - supported for legacy applications, but useCatalyst::Plugin::Compress in new code. Compress response if client supports it....

Gzip compress response if client supports it....

Deflate compress response if client supports it....

The "Compress::LZ4" module provides an interface to the LZ4 (de)compressor....

"Compress::LZW" is a perl implementation of the Lempel-Ziv-Welch compression algorithm, which should no longer be patented worldwide. It is shooting for loose compatibility with the flavor of LZW found in the classic UNIX compress(1), though there ar...

LZF is an extremely fast (not that much slower than a pure memcpy) compression algorithm. It is ideal for applications where you want to save *some* space but not at the cost of speed. It is ideal for repetitive data as well. The module is self-conta...

Compress::PPMd is compossed of two classes to compress and decompress data respectively: Compress::PPMd::Encoder "Compress::PPMd::Encoder->new($MaxOrder, $MemSizeMB, $MRMethod, $Solid)" creates a new encoder object. The parameters are: $MaxOrder max ...

LZV1 is an extremely fast (not that much slower than a pure memcpy) compression algorithm. It is ideal for applications where you want to save *some* space but not at the cost of speed. It is ideal for repetitive data as well. The module is self-cont...

Used internally. See Protocol::SPDY instead....

This module provides functions compatible with MySQL COMPRESS() and UNCOMPRESS(). One reason you may want to use these functions is because MySQL COMPRESS() does not offer the possibilty to specify the compression level, whereas the mysql_compress() ...

The *Compress::Bzip2* module provides a Perl interface to the bzip2 compression library (see "AUTHOR" for details about where to get *Bzip2*). A relevant subset of the functionality provided by *bzip2* is available in *Compress::Bzip2*. All string pa...

The "Compress::Snappy" module provides an interface to Google's Snappy (de)compressor. Snappy does not aim for maximum compression, or compatibility with any other compression library; instead, it aims for very high speeds and reasonable compression....
