In this release the python -m isal.igzip relatively slow decompression rate
has been improved in both speed and usability. Previously it was 19% slower
than igzip when used with the -d flag for decompressing, now it is
just 8% slower. Also some extra flags were added to make it easier to select
the output file.

  • Prompt when an output file is overwritten with the python -m isal.igzip
    command line utility and provide the -f or --force flags to force
    overwriting.
  • Added -o and --output flags to the python -m isal.igzip command
    line utility to allow the user to select the destination of the output file.
  • Reverse a bug in the build system which caused some docstring and parameter
    information on igzip_lib and isal_zlib to disappear in the
    documentation and the REPL.
  • Increase the buffer size for python -m isal.igzip so it is now closer
    to speeds reached with igzip.
  • Add a READ_BUFFER_SIZE attribute to igzip which allows setting the
    amount of raw data that is read at once.
  • Add an igzip_lib.IgzipDecompressor object which can decompress without
    using an unconsumed_tail and is therefore more efficient.
