Abstract
Mechanisms are provided for optimizing file data compressed using deflate mechanisms such as the ZLIB Compressed Data Format Specification and the DEFLATE Compressed Data Format Specification. Deflate mechanisms output different deflate file data depending on specific file data parameters. An optimization tool decompresses the deflate file data and outputs an optimized data stream. When a client application attempts to access the deflate data, the tool deoptimizes the optimized data stream and applies the same deflate algorithm to generate deflate file data. Although the deflate algorithm is applied without using the file data parameters used to generate the original deflate file data, substitute deflate file data is produced.
