JavaScript inflate implementation (possibly FF 3.6 only)

I'm writing some scripts that are using the HTML 5 file API in FireFox 3.6. I got some deflated (compressed) files, and I need to inflate (uncompress) them.

Java Deflater strategies - DEFAULT_STRATEGY, FILTERED and HUFFMAN_ONLY

I'm trying to find a balance between performance and degree of compression when gzipping a Java webapp response. In looking at the Deflater class, I can set a level and a strategy. The levels are self explanatory - BEST_SPEED to BEST_COMPRESSION. I'm not sure regarding the strategies - DEFAULT_STRATEGY, FILTERED and HUFFMAN_ONLY I can...

Ruby zlib deflate massive data

I'm trying to use Zlib::Deflate.deflate on a massive file (4 gigs). There are obvious problems with doing that, the first of which being that I can't load the entire file into memory all at once.

Compress/Decompress NSString in objective-c (iphone) using GZIP or deflate

Hi, I have a web-service running on Windows Azure which returns JSON that I consume in my iPhone app. Unfortunately, Windows Azure doesn't seem to support the compression of dynamic responses yet (long story) so I decided to get around it by returning an uncompressed JSON package, which contains a compressed (using GZIP) string. e.g ...

Apache Deflate - does it wait for the whole page to load first?

I set up a server to use the Apache2 deflate recently. Some people started reporting long waiting times on certain pages. The page in particular is one that takes a long time to load, as it's gathering data from external sources. Usually it loads progressively, which is good for user feedback. The whole page can take 10-15 seconds to f...
