     LZO is a data compression library which is suitable for data
     de-/compression in real-time. This means it favours speed over
     compression ratio.

     LZO implements a number of algorithms with the following features:
        + Decompression is simple and *very* fast.
        + Requires no memory for decompression.
        + Compression is pretty fast.
        + Requires 64 kB of memory for compression.
        + Allows you to dial up extra compression at a speed cost in the
          compressor. The speed of the decompressor is not reduced.
        + Includes compression levels for generating pre-compressed data
          which achieve a quite competitive compression ratio.
        + There is also a compression level which needs only 8 kB for
          compression.
        + Algorithm is thread safe.
        + Algorithm is lossless.
