support lzop save compression for qemu
Per prior discussion -- this was, indeed, trivial. I'm a little disappointed to be breaking the ordering characteristics of the enum (as it had been ordered by increasing time requirements and decreasing output size), but breaking any save files with the old constants in the headers would of course be worse. >From 2a9cdcfc88de091a8d34aa3fc3b1208d7681790e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Charles Duffy <Charles_Duffy@dell.com> Date: Fri, 28 Aug 2009 11:49:54 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] support lzop save compression for qemu One of the larger disincentives towards use of compression for migrated-out save files is performance impact. This patch adds support for lzop; CPU time for compression is about 5x faster than gzip (the next most performant algorithm) and decompression is about 3x faster.
