Description

Whole-buffer DEFLATE-based compression and decompression of raw vectors using the 'libdeflate' library (see <https://github.com/ebiggers/libdeflate>). Provides the user with additional control over the speed and the quality of DEFLATE compression compared to the fixed level of compression offered in R's 'memCompress()' function. Also provides the 'libdeflate' static library and 'C' headers along with a 'CMake' target and 'package‑config' file that ease linking of 'libdeflate' in packages that compile and statically link bundled libraries using 'CMake'.
