Overview:
|

|
|
This document is for small proposal ideas that are about one paragraph in
|
|
length. From here, ideas can be rejected outright, expanded into full
|
|
proposals, or specified and implemented as-is.

Proposals
|
|
|
|
1. Directory compression.
|
|
|
|
Gzip would be easier to work with than zlib; bzip2 would result in smaller
|
|
data lengths. [Concretely, we're looking at about 10-15% space savings at
|
|
the expense of 3-5x longer compression time for using bzip2.] Doing
|
|
on-the-fly gzip requires zlib 1.2 or later; doing bzip2 requires bzlib.
|
|
Pre-compressing status documents in multiple formats would force us to use
|
|
more memory to hold them.
