I am working on file compression.  I mentioned in a previous thread
that I did better than others.  I was wrong.

Oh, I'm so surprised!

The experiment was
blotted by a bug.  Now I'm getting results about as good as PKWare's
deflate/maximum technique.  I still have ideas.  Again, it may be due
to an error.  Again, as mentioned previously, it is very slow.  I have
in mind some techniques to speed up the compression.  They wouldn't be
that good:

Then why re-invent the wheel?

Again, I don't think these would help much.  In fact, on poorly
compressible files, it may take longer.  I am looking for other
techniques to speed up this technique.  I assume I must minimize the
hits.  Any help would be appreciated.

Give it up, and use somebody else's wheel!
