|
|

|
functions can compress or uncompress more than 4GB data in one call on |
|
|
|
|
platforms with 64-bit long, which has been corrected. |

to stream the data from object store when possible, without having to |
|
|

read the entire contents of a file in memory first. |

updated, and reports the ones with errors at the end. |
