3*f4ee7fbaSAndroid Build Coastguard WorkerBrotli is a generic-purpose lossless compression algorithm that compresses data
4*f4ee7fbaSAndroid Build Coastguard Workerusing a combination of a modern variant of the LZ77 algorithm, Huffman coding
5*f4ee7fbaSAndroid Build Coastguard Workerand 2nd order context modeling, with a compression ratio comparable to the best
6*f4ee7fbaSAndroid Build Coastguard Workercurrently available general-purpose compression methods. It is similar in speed
