Windows Command-Line Tools

Nobody has claimed this yet.

Hi, could you provide binaries for Windows? Wanna include MiGz into my benchmark roster using 512KB and bigger blocks, by the way, how bigger they can be?

Your explanation of the acronym is not clear to me, please explain:
"... also supports multithreaded decompression, which is especially important for large files that are read repeatedly. Hence, MiGz."

What does the little 'i' stand for?

Allow me two more questions:
- Why not in C?
- Are you aware that MultIple decompressions are not bottlenecked by CPU in LzTurbo 29? I mean, your testresults using 4 cores are even inferior to the single-threaded decompression of LzTurbo 29/39!

As you can see from the above (random) test, LzTurbo 30 decompresses 1233.67/333.83=3.69x and compresses 306.55/15.35=19.97x faster than zlib 9!

For the second random example, LzTurbo 29 is 4x faster than zlib 9 in decompression, no need of 4 cores.

The request concerns Windows binaries for MiGz's command-line utilities, along with explanations of the acronym, block sizes, language choice, and benchmark results. Start by reviewing how the platform-independent Java library and command-line utilities are packaged; done would require a defined Windows distribution and resolved documentation questions, but the issue names no files or tests.
