How about in verb form compact (COMPACT in 8 capitalized characters or less),
and in noun form compaction?
Another option is simply to attach adjectives, for example:
BCOMP - basic compression
[ other options: SCOMP for simple compression, CCOMP for classic compression ]
ECOMP - enhanced compression
The latter ("enhanced") is the adjective assigned to the newer form of
zlib-based hardware accelerated compression, so it aligns orthogonally. And if
there's ever a third form of compression there are other adjectives and letters
available such as:
SCOMP - super compression
ACOMP - advanced compression
QCOMP - quantum compression
No, I don't know what quantum compression would be. It's just an example.
