I see you put how to calculate the compression ratio, but do you have some examples of worst case, average, and best case compression ratios?

Edit: ok I see the photos in the repo. Putting them in the README would be helpful

Author here. The repo is a complete mess but I do have some some code in there to generate graphs and whatnot if you're willing to dig through the code. I will make this much more concrete with lots of proper testing. Its very much still a messy work in progress.

I applaud you for uploading even if it’s a bit disorganised still, and I do the same. It’s better to have something than nothing. Sometimes I see people talking about something but they don’t want to upload their code yet because they have to clean it up first. And then either they don’t get around to ever cleaning it up the way they wanted, or by they time they do it will have fallen off everyone’s radar and be forgotten. At least with a messy repo it’s possible to poke around, and not the least to star it and maybe check back later to see if they cleaned it up.
