it has been for a while.

apple added compressed files several years ago and has now extended it
to memory.

20 years ago, connectix had a product called ramdoubler. it's not a new

it's faster to move a smaller chunk of compressed data and uncompress
it than it is to move a larger uncompressed chunk.
