from pkg/DESCR -------------- LZO is a data compression library which is suitable for data de-/compression in real-time. This means it favours speed over compression ratio. LZO implements a number of algorithms with the following features: + Decompression is simple and *very* fast. + Requires no memory for decompression. + Compression is pretty fast. + Requires 64 kB of memory for compression. + Allows you to dial up extra compression at a speed cost in the compressor. The speed of the decompressor is not reduced. + Includes compression levels for generating pre-compressed data which achieve a quite competitive compression ratio. + There is also a compression level which needs only 8 kB for compression. + Algorithm is thread safe. + Algorithm is lossless.
