It looks like Andrea got good results  -- will wait until Monday to see if he thinks Flac 1.4.0 should go in.
Meanwhile, I decided to do a much bigger test and here are the results:

Old:     671435 frames in 274.260 secs / 2448.170 fps / Size=2834313874
New:   671435 frames in 244.648 secs / 2744.494 fps  / Size=2786770407 (Compression=0)
New:   671435 frames in 354.841 secs / 1892.214 fps  / Size=2400810590 (Compression=5)

Would it not be better to put the default compression level at 0?  That would be the most consistent with the old version in speed and in size.  I do not think it is a good idea to change what the user is used to seeing -- especially since the speed of the new version is better than the old once Andrew's patches are applied.  What do you think?


well, it seems speed/size in this case depend on content (what exactly we compress), so lets wait for more tests from Andrea.

But at very least this parameter how configurable :-)

Here are the results with all patches (I did not install doxygen):

** rendered 9063 frames in 2.455 secs, 3691.650 fps

** rendered 9063 frames in 3.117 secs, 2907.603 fps

NB: the value of "compression_level" remains as previously set, it
does not change to the default automatically.
