This is a patched version of zlib, modified to use
2
Pentium-Pro-optimized assembly code in the deflation algorithm. The
3
files changed/added by this patch are:
4
 
5
README.686
6
match.S
7
 
8
The speedup that this patch provides varies, depending on whether the
9
compiler used to build the original version of zlib falls afoul of the
10
PPro's speed traps. My own tests show a speedup of around 10-20% at
11
the default compression level, and 20-30% using -9, against a version
12
compiled using gcc 2.7.2.3. Your mileage may vary.
13
 
14
Note that this code has been tailored for the PPro/PII in particular,
15
and will not perform particuarly well on a Pentium.
16
 
17
If you are using an assembler other than GNU as, you will have to
18
translate match.S to use your assembler's syntax. (Have fun.)

To compile zlib with this asm file, copy match.S to the zlib directory
31
then do:

CFLAGS="-O3 -DASMV" ./configure

make OBJA=match.o
