 *		Some values that control the compression algorithm.
 *
 *		min_input_size		Minimum input data size to consider compression.
 *
 *		max_input_size		Maximum input data size to consider compression.
 *
 *		min_comp_rate		Minimum compression rate (0-99%) to require.
 *							Regardless of min_comp_rate, the output must be
 *							smaller than the input, else we don't store
 *							compressed.
 *
 *		first_success_by	Abandon compression if we find no compressible
 *							data within the first this-many bytes.
 *
 *		match_size_good		The initial GOOD match size when starting history
 *							lookup. When looking up the history to find a
 *							match that could be expressed as a tag, the
 *							algorithm does not always walk back entirely.
 *							A good match fast is usually better than the
 *							best possible one very late. For each iteration
 *							in the lookup, this value is lowered so the
 *							longer the lookup takes, the smaller matches
 *							are considered good.
 *
 *		match_size_drop		The percentage by which match_size_good is lowered
 *							after each history check. Allowed values are
 *							0 (no change until end) to 100 (only check
 *							latest history entry at all).
