Abstract
Many applications dealing with large data structures can benefit from keeping them in compressed form. Compression has many benefits: it can allow a representation to fit in main memory rather than swapping out to disk, and it improves cache performance since it allows more data to fit into the cache. However, a data structure is only useful if it allows the application to perform fast queries (and updates) to the data.
