[Zlib-devel] Google's version of zlib code

[Mark Adler]

All,

I have updated pigz to incorporate the zopfli code for a new compression level 11.  pigz makes use of multiple processors and cores for compression, including level 11.

This new version, pigz 2.3, has been released and is now available at http://zlib.net/pigz/ .  It includes the zopfli code with one minor change to expose a function for external use.

I plan to eventually incorporate zopfli in zlib, but it will take a while since the zopfli interface isn't really set up for that.  Also there will need to be modifications to use zlib memory allocation routines, and likely other changes that I haven't discovered yet.
