DEFLATE

A lossless data compression algorithm that combines LZ77 sliding-window compression with Huffman coding. It is the core compression engine of formats such as GZip and ZIP.

DEFLATE typically achieves a compression rate of 60%–80% on text data, and decompression is extremely fast.

The DEFLATE algorithm used by gzip is based on LZ77 sliding window and Huffman coding, with a maximum sliding window of 32KB for standard gzip.

In DEFLATE, the LZ77 stage replaces repeated bytes with offset+length pointers, and the Huffman coding stage builds variable-length prefix codes for symbols so that high-frequency symbols use shorter encodings.
