Description

mixed bzcompress ( string $source [, int $blocksize = 4 [, int $workfactor = 0 ]] )

bzcompress() compresses the given string and returns it as bzip2 encoded data.

Parameters

source

The string to compress.

blocksize

Specifies the blocksize used during compression and should be a number from 1 to 9 with 9 giving the best compression, but using more resources to do so.

Regardless of the workfactor, the generated output is the same.

Return Values
