| ====== |
| |
| Brotli is a generic-purpose lossless compression algorithm that compresses data |
| using a combination of a modern variant of the LZ77 algorithm, Huffman coding |
| and 2nd order context modeling, with a compression ratio comparable to the best |
| currently available general-purpose compression methods. It is similar in speed |
| with deflate but offers more dense compression. |
| |
| The specification of the Brotli Compressed Data Format is defined in the |
| following internet draft: |
