Fixes: (#468) * fix slow-down after a long copy (q10-11) * more thorough hashing for long ranges (q10-11) * minor documentation fixes * bazel.io -> bazel.build
Brotli is a generic-purpose lossless compression algorithm that compresses data using a combination of a modern variant of the LZ77 algorithm, Huffman coding and 2nd order context modeling, with a compression ratio comparable to the best currently available general-purpose compression methods. It is similar in speed with deflate but offers more dense compression.
The specification of the Brotli Compressed Data Format is defined in RFC 7932.

To build and run tests, simply do:
$ ./configure && make
If you want to install brotli, use one of the more advanced build systems below.
See Bazel
The basic commands to build, test and install brotli are:
$ mkdir out && cd out && cmake .. && make $ make test $ make install
You can use other CMake configuration. For example, to build static libraries and use a custom installation directory:
$ mkdir out-static && \ cd out-static && \ cmake .. -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=0 -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX='/my/install/dir/' $ make install
See Premake5
The basic commands to build, test, and install the Python module are:
$ python setup.py build test $ python setup.py install
See the Python readme for more details.
