+ || '''Title''' || ''' Improve Apache Harmony zlib/zip performance ''' ||
+ || '''ASF Project''' || Apache Harmony http://harmony.apache.org ||
+ || '''Keywords''' || Java, zlib, Zip ||
+ || '''Description''' || There are a number of changes that should improve zlib performance for Harmony such as using the inflateBack api (compare gzip/gun in the zlib distribution), exploiting parallelism (compare gzip/pigz) and/or using mmap rather than file operations.  The project would be to implement these techniques to see what works in practice.  ||
