Hi /prog/,

I just finished on my "proof of concept" of a new compression algorithm, and frankly it's awesome.

At current guesstimations I could compress a 10MB file to about ~4MB in less than 30 seconds (Probably less than 5 seconds but I'm being cautious).

To decompress will take about a day. A whole day. Though I'm 100% certain that I could halve that time by using two cores, and CUDA/OpenCL/etc probably couldn't hurt either but I couldn't make a judgement on those.

So basically in 10 years time when we have 64+ cores and new super GPUs it'll be awesome right?

Compression; People always talk about counting argument,entropy and other esoteric stuff while
using archived files daily. Especially one stupid argument i hear is "You can't compress purely random data!"
Which is so silly, since 'purely random data' is worthless as output.

Experience is never limited, and it is never complete; it is an immense sensibility, a kind of huge spider-web of the finest silken threads suspended in the chamber of consciousness, and catching every air-borne particle in its tissue.
