File Type Detection (HIGH PRIORITY) - **Problem**: Compression attempted on all files, including already-compressed formats - **Solution**: Added `is_already_compressed()` checking 30+ file extensions - **Coverage**: Images, Audio, Video, Archives, Documents, Binaries - **Impact**: Reduces CPU usage by 30-50% for mixed file sets -- **Status**: ✅ COMPLETED +- **Status**: ✅ COMPLETED & PUSHED ### 3. Size Threshold (MEDIUM PRIORITY) - **Problem**: Compression overhead exceeds benefits for tiny files - **Solution**: Skip compression for files < 1024 bytes (COMPRESS_MIN_SIZE) - **Impact**: Reduces overhead for small files -- **Status**: ✅ COMPLETED +- **Status**: ✅ COMPLETED & PUSHED -### 4. Compression Level Selection (LOW PRIORITY) +### 4.

Memory Reuse for Batch Processing (MEDIUM PRIORITY) - **Problem**: Compression buffers allocated/freed per-file -- **Solution**: Batch-level buffer allocation and reuse +- **Solution**: + - Track max file size during batch collection + - Allocate `file_buf` and `comp_buf` once per batch + - Reuse buffers across all files in batch + - Only allocate if at least one file needs compression - **Impact**: Fewer malloc/free calls, reduced memory fragmentation -- **Status**: ✅ COMPLETED +- **Status**: ✅ COMPLETED & PUSHED ### 6. Benchmark Tests (MEDIUM PRIORITY) - **Problem**: Need to verify compression streaming improvements - **Solution**: Added `run_compression_stream_test()` to benchmark_network.sh +- **Tests**: Already-compressed files (skip via type detection), text files (compress well), small files (skip via size threshold) - **Usage**: `./benchmark_network.sh --compress-test` -- **Status**: ✅ COMPLETED +- **Status**: ✅ COMPLETED & PUSHED ### 7.
