Faster Compressorizer (Reupload) (Beta)
Tool for compressing .package files.
This version of The Compressorizer contains a replacement for the dbpf-recompress.exe file, which is responsible for reading, writing, and compressing the files provided by the user.
It speeds up compression in two ways:
- By making the compression a little weaker: The original code of The Compressorizer used a strong compression which came at the expense of significantly slowing the program down. Adjusting some constants in the code makes it run noticeably faster.
- Parallel processing: This version compresses multiple parts of the package file at once by utilizing all of the cores of your CPU.
