    Phoronix: AMD Releases Brotli-G For GPU-Accelerated Brotli Compression

    After open-sourcing its Radeon Raytracing Analyzer code last week, this week AMD's GPUOpen team has a new open-source project announcement: Brotli-G...

      Wonderful, more open source stuff is always better to have!
      Good job and thank you very much AMD!

          To see how it scale, any benchmark to difference of performance?

            I wonder if popping it into a HLSL to SPIRV converter works

              just not AMD Radeon graphics products
              Shouldn't it be "not just"? In my mind this has the completely opposite meaning. I got really confused reading this sentence.

                Yes, weird to announce a new algo, hinting at improved performance, but not releasing any numbers.

                I had to dig through the articles, but it linked to https://quixdb.github.io/squash-benc...#results-table.
                This does not contain Brotli-G numbers, but is a very nice and comprehensive comparison of compression algos.

                Better than nothing, I guess.

                  That converter is called Clang. Just fetch the DX compiler and compile it. Or wait until upstreaming of the HLSL front-end is finished (it's pending) and upstream Clang will do the trick, won't need MS's fork anymore.

                    The problem is some algorithm don't scale well, then use GPU to just have 30% more performance is useless
