When srcSize is small,
the nb of symbols produced is likely too small to warrant dedicated probability tables.
In which case, predefined distribution tables will be used instead.
There is a cheap algorithm in btultra initialization :
it presumes default distribution will be used if srcSize <= 1024.
btultra2 now uses the same threshold to shut down probability estimation,
since measured frequencies won't be used at entropy stage,
and therefore relying on them to determine sequence cost is misleading,
resulting in worse compression ratios.
This fixes btultra2 performance issue on very small input.
Note that, a proper way should be
to determine which symbol is going to use predefined probaility
and which symbol is going to use dynamic ones.
But the current algorithm is unable to make a "per-symbol" decision.
So this will require significant modifications.
from overlapSizeLog.
Reasoning :
`overlapLog` is already used everwhere, in the code, command line and documentation.
`ZSTD_c_overlapSizeLog` feels unnecessarily different.
ZSTD_compress_generic() is renamed ZSTD_compressStream2().
Note that, for the time being,
the "stable" API and advanced one use different parameter planes :
setting parameters using the advanced API does not influence ZSTD_compressStream()
and using ZSTD_initCStream() does not influence parameters for ZSTD_compressStream2().
which now accepts an enum,
to distinguish between resetting the session, or the parameters (or both).
removed ZSTD_CCtx_resetParameters(), which is redundant.
start replacing invocation of ZSTD_CCtx_reset*() functions
Updated advanced API documentation
trimmed down amount of API staged in RC,
in particular, all functions related to ZSTD_CCtxParams()
seem too advanced.
answering #1407.
Also : removed obsolete function ZSTD_setDStreamParameter()
which could only be used with one parameter (DStream_p_maxWindowSize).
Now replaced by ZSTD_DCtx_setWindowSize() (which exists since a few revisions)
