I want to release gzip-1.14 by Tuesday or Wednesday, so here's a
snapshot of the latest. It's been more than 1.5 years since gzip-1.13,
but with a surprising performance improvement as well as some bug fixes.
Any tests (success/failure) you can tell us about would be most welcome.
Thanks from all of us,
Jim
gzip snapshot:
https://meyering.net/gzip/gzip-ss.tar.xz 876 KB
https://meyering.net/gzip/gzip-ss.tar.xz.sig
https://meyering.net/gzip/gzip-1.13.56-e549.tar.xz
Here's the current state of NEWS:
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=
=3D=3D
** Bug fixes
'gzip -d' no longer omits the last partial output buffer when the
input ends unexpectedly on an IBM Z platform.
[bug introduced in gzip-1.11]
'gzip -l' no longer misreports lengths of multimember inputs.
[bug introduced in gzip-1.12]
'gzip -S' now rejects suffixes containing '/'.
[bug present since the beginning]
** Changes in behavior
The GZIP environment variable is now silently ignored except for the
options -1 (--fast) through -9 (--best), --rsyncable, and --synchronous.
This brings gzip into line with more-cautious compressors like zstd
that limit environment variables' effect to relatively innocuous
performance issues. You can continue to use scripts to specify
whatever gzip options you like.
** Performance improvements
gzip now decompresses significantly faster by computing CRCs via a
slice by 8 algorithm, and faster yet on x86-64 platforms that
support pclmul instructions.
