š Original message:Hi All,
Here are some final results of testing with the reference implementation
for compressing blocks and transactions. This implementation also
concatenates blocks and transactions when possible so you'll see data
sizes in the 1-2MB ranges.
Results below show the time it takes to sync the first part of the
blockchain, comparing Zlib to the LZOx library. (LZOf was also tried
but wasn't found to be as good as LZOx). The following shows tests run
with and without latency. With latency on the network, all compression
libraries performed much better than without compression.
I don't think it's entirely obvious which is better, Zlib or LZO.
Although I prefer the higher compression of Zlib, overall I would have
to give the edge to LZO. With LZO we have the fastest most scalable
option when at the lowest compression setting which will be a boost in
performance for users that want peformance over compression, and then at
the high end LZO provides decent compression which approaches Zlib,
(although at a higher cost) but good for those that want to save more
bandwidth.

The following show the compression ratio acheived for various sizes of

winner for compressibility, with LZOx-999 coming close but at a cost.

The following shows the time in seconds to compress data of various
sizes. LZO1x is the
fastest and as file sizes increase, LZO1x time hardly increases at all.
It's interesing
to note as compression ratios increase LZOx-999 performs much worse than
Zlib. So LZO is faster
on the low end and slower (5 to 6 times slower) on the high end.
