    compress/flate: Performance improvement for inflate · ebf35167
    Raph Levien authored
    Decode as much as possible of a Huffman symbol in a single table
    lookup (much like the zlib implementation), filling more bits
    (conservatively, so we don't consume past the end of the stream)
    when the code prefix indicates more bits are needed. This
    results in about a 50% performance gain in speed benchmarks.
    The following set is benchcmp done on a retina MacBook Pro:
