Aside from the usual support for multiple formats, the main features of this release are support for applying multiple patches in one run, and working directly from compressed files (no intermediate decompression of src or patches). There has been a few tweaks to the differencer(s), generally decreasing intermediate buffers, and cleaning up corner cases. Generated patches still are typically smaller then xdelta patches w/ the same compression, although still lose out to bsdiff in most cases. Memory usage for diffball still is *much* better then bsdiff.
* Tweaks to multipass alg for better performance, a whole slew of new hashing setups/strategies. * conversion to bdelta format works again.
