1largeNbDicts
2=====================
3
4`largeNbDicts` is a benchmark test tool
5dedicated to the specific scenario of
6dictionary decompression using a very large number of dictionaries.
7When dictionaries are constantly changing, they are always "cold",
8suffering from increased latency due to cache misses.
9
10The tool is created in a bid to investigate performance for this scenario,
11and experiment mitigation techniques.
