kkrunchy 0.23 alpha

 

 

    kkrunchy is a small exe packer primarily meant for 64k intros. it's relatively useless for anything else actually, because the depacker was relatively slow in older releases (about 1-2MB per second on my machine) and is dog slow in the newest version (about 90-120k per second for typical data on my p4 2.4GHz). kkrunchy also doesn't try to pack DLLs and can't handle exports or TLS (thread local storage) - as said, it's meant for 64ks.

 

    what it does have is very good compression (on 64ks, notably better than anything else i've tried). so it might be helpful if you need a few extra bytes. or a few extra kilobytes - say, 10 or so :) (yes, that's actually happened on some intros).
