Abstract
Techniques for performing incremental block compression using a processor are described herein. The processor receives a request to compress input data, the request including compression parameters for the compression and a target block size. The processor divides the input data into portions. The processor iteratively compresses the input data to an output block, until compressing another portion of data would increase a file size of the output block over a threshold value that is based at least on the target block size.
