dumbpress's Introduction

dumbpress

It's small, it's fast, it stinks!

dumbpress is just a quick experiment to make a small and bad compression method.

It has however resulted in some interesting properties:

  1. It's pretty dang fast (because it's barely doing anything)
  2. It works best on very very random data (because you can barely do anything with that)

Check out this gnarly unscientific benchmark of compressing a 1.1GB iso:

Methods Time Output Size
no comp N/A testfile 1127481344
dumbpress 18.084s testfile.dp 1122264411
zip 34.259s testfile.zip 1116107723
gzip 38.362s testfile.gz 1116107584
bzip2 153.206s testfile.bz2 1120221876

Good news, it's dependency-less! Just cc main.c -o dumbpress and you're ready to hardly do anything!
