// A light-weight compression algorithm. It is designed for speed of
// compression and decompression, rather than for the utmost in space
// savings.
//
// For getting better compression ratios when you are compressing data
// with long repeated sequences or compressing data that is similar to
// other data, while still compressing fast, you might look at first
// using BMDiff and then compressing the output of BMDiff with
// Snappy.
