    GParted is a GTK front-end to GNU Parted and an official GNOME partition-editing application (alongside Disks).GParted is used for creating, deleting, [3] resizing, [4] moving, checking, and copying disk partitions and their file systems.

  3. zswap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zswap

    As of version 3.13 of the Linux kernel, zswap also needs to be explicitly enabled by specifying value 1 for the kernel boot parameter zswap.enabled. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 4 ] The maximum size of the memory pool used by zswap is configurable through the sysfs parameter max_pool_percent , which specifies the maximum percentage of total system RAM that ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compress_(software)

    compress is a Unix shell compression program based on the LZW compression algorithm. [1] Compared to gzip's fastest setting, compress is slightly slower at compression, slightly faster at decompression, and has a significantly lower compression ratio.

    list file attributes on a Linux second extended file system mke2fs used for creating ext2, ext3 and ext4 file systems resize2fs which can expand and shrink ext2, ext3 and ext4 file systems. On-line support was added in 2006. [2] tune2fs used to modify file system parameters. Many of these utilities are based on the libext2fs library.

  6. Lossy compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lossy_compression

    While data reduction (compression, be it lossy or lossless) is a main goal of transform coding, it also allows other goals: one may represent data more accurately for the original amount of space [5] – for example, in principle, if one starts with an analog or high-resolution digital master, an MP3 file of a given size should provide a better ...

  7. Lossless compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lossless_compression

    By operation of the pigeonhole principle, no lossless compression algorithm can shrink the size of all possible data: Some data will get longer by at least one symbol or bit. Compression algorithms are usually effective for human- and machine-readable documents and cannot shrink the size of random data that contain no redundancy. Different ...

    Comtech produced a PCI-X card (PCI-ID: 193f:0001) capable of compressing streams using Deflate at a rate of up to 3.0 Gbit/s (375 MB/s) for incoming uncompressed data. Accompanying the Linux kernel driver for the AHA361-PCIX is an "ahagzip" utility and customised "mod_deflate_aha" capable of using the hardware compression from Apache.
