gollark: I guess that might work as a way to show the maximum possible value/overhead from sending data to the GPU.
gollark: Arguably true bogocalc would be picking results (according to some kind of weird random distribution which technically has a chance of picking any possible number) until they can be verified to be right.
gollark: For speed, lz4. For general compatibility and relative simplicity, DEFLATE. For performance and decent ratio, zstd.
gollark: I think the best compression ratios right now are achieved by lzma and bzip and such.
gollark: I'm pretty sure a form being submitted makes it refresh anyway?
