New submission from Ruben Vorderman <r.h.p.vorder...@lumc.nl>:
def compress(data, compresslevel=_COMPRESS_LEVEL_BEST, *, mtime=None): """Compress data in one shot and return the compressed string. compresslevel sets the compression level in range of 0-9. mtime can be used to set the modification time. The modification time is set to the current time by default. """ if mtime == 0: # Use zlib as it creates the header with 0 mtime by default. # This is faster and with less overhead. return zlib.compress(data, level=compresslevel, wbits=31) header = _create_simple_gzip_header(compresslevel, mtime) trailer = struct.pack("<LL", zlib.crc32(data), (len(data) & 0xffffffff)) # Wbits=-15 creates a raw deflate block. return header + zlib.compress(data, wbits=-15) + trailer ^ Level should be here I noticed this while benchmarking against python-isal. This benchmarks add level 1 and it seemed oddly slow. This can be fixed easily.
