Looking for software for delta compression

[christophgil]

Hi Lemire,

I found your software when searching for a solution regarding large binary data.

We are using files with an unpublished proprietory file format.
With hexdump I noticed that it belongs of long data blocks which could efficiently compressed with
delta-compression techniques. It is 4 bytes each. Longs or floats (mantissa+exp) I do not know yet.

Do you know of a compression programs that could compress such file. It would need to identify these block positions
automatically. Could this be done with FastPFor?

Many thanks

Christoph

We do have delta compression routines in FastPFor, yes.
