"compression" … sure.. but bmdiff? Not that I can find. BMDiff is an algorithm that in some situations could result in 100000x compression due to the way it's able to find long commons runs. This is a pathological case though. But if you were to copy the US constitution into itself … 100000x… bmdiff could ideally get a 100000x compression rate.
