If you want you could give minilzo a try.

LZO is a data compression library which is suitable for data de-/compression
in real-time.
LZO implements the fastest compression and decompression algorithms around.
See the ratings for lzop in the famous Archive Comparison Test .

LZO needs no memory for decompression, 64k or 8k for compression.

LZO and the LZO algorithms and implementations are distributed under the
terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL) { auf Deutsch }. Special
licenses for commercial and other applications are available by contacting
