Google announced that the next version of Chrome will support the compressor Brotli. With this addition, users can save up to 25% in the consumption of its mobile data when they are sailing in the browser.
The compression algorithm Brotli was released by Google as a product open source in September last year. Shortly after its introduction, Mozilla updated its Firefox browser to incorporate. However, his arrival in Chrome on Android devices was delayed more than expected.
Faster
The company Mountain View He published an internal investigation which certify that the new algorithm is faster than gzip, the standard compression system online communications. Depending on the source, the process accelerated between 17% and 25%.
Google will begin to add Brotli in the next update of Chrome for Windows, Mac, Linux, Chrome OS and Android. While the benefits of this algorithm are welcome on all operating systems, Android is the platform that will benefit more by reducing data consumption and battery.
