Abstract
A method for compressing a data structure generated for a computing system includes: generating a table comprising block values of a set of blocks in the data structure, where a block size of each block in the set of blocks is determined by an architecture of the computing system and the values are a threshold number of the most frequently occurring values; determining whether a first value of a block is stored in the table, where the block occurs; storing, in response to determining that the first value is stored in the table, a table index of the first value in a first data structure; storing, in a second data structure, a second value indicating whether the first value is stored in the table; generating a compressed data structure, where the compressed data structure comprises the table, first data structure and the second data structure.
