Joe Tsai 22dfbbec7f compress/flate: improve inflate speed by reading more bits at a time
The flate library guarantees that the Reader will never read more
bytes than is necessary. This way, the underlying io.Reader will
be left exactly after the last byte of the DEFLATE stream.
Formats like gzip depend on this behavior being true.

As such, inflate conservatively reads the minimum symbol length in
huffSym leading to many individual calls to moreBits. However, if we
take advantage of the fact that every block *must* end with the EOB
symbol, we can choose to read the length of the EOB symbol.
Since the EOB symbol is also the most rare symbol (occuring exactly
once) in a block, we can hypothesize that it is almost as long as
the max symbol length, allowing huffSym to ask for more bits at the
start of every loop. This increases the probabilty that the Huffman
code is decoded on the first iteration of the outer for-loop.

The Go Programming Language

Go is an open source programming language that makes it easy to build simple, reliable, and efficient software.

Our canonical Git repository is located at https://go.googlesource.com/go. There is a mirror of the repository at https://github.com/golang/go.

Go is the work of hundreds of contributors. We appreciate your help!

Binary Distribution Notes

If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go directory (the one containing this file). You can omit the variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install-source.html). You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin to your shell's path.

For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might put the following in your .profile:

export GOROOT=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin

See https://golang.org/doc/install or doc/install.html for more details.
