Abstract
An embodiment may include circuitry that may be capable of performing compression-related operations that may include: (a) indicating, at least in part, in a data structure at least one position of at least one subset of characters that are to be encoded as a symbol, (b) comparing, at least in part, at least one pair of multi-byte data words that are of identical predetermined fixed size, (c) maintaining, at least in part, an array of pointers to potentially matching strings that are to be compared with at least one currently examined string, and/or (d) allocating, at least in part, a first buffer portion to store at least one portion of uncompressed data from an application buffer that is to be input for compression to produce a compressed data stream.
