Compression library for c and php

Question

To save network traffic, I would like to compress my data. The only trick is that I am the client application c, and the server is php. I am looking for an open source library available for both c and php.

I think I could write an external application c to unpack my data, but I try to avoid the appearance of additional processes on the server.

If you know, please send it!

Answer 6

it depends on what data you transfer. If this is text, use mod_gzip for apache (I assume you use it). I saw about 70% text compression with this. But if you are dealing with binary data, such as images and videos, use media formats that are more compressed.
