From: Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy <vsement...@virtuozzo.com> There are no needs to allocate more than one cluster, as we set avail_out for deflate to one cluster.
Zlib docs (http://www.zlib.net/manual.html) says: "deflate compresses as much data as possible, and stops when the input buffer becomes empty or the output buffer becomes full." So, deflate will not write more than avail_out to output buffer. If there is not enough space in output buffer for compressed data (it may be larger than input data) deflate just returns Z_OK. (if all data is compressed and written to output buffer deflate returns Z_STREAM_END).
