WinCompressX Publisher Description

WinCompressX saves RAM by utilizing a window compression scheme.
In 32 bit mode (millions of colors), a windows that is
800 x 600 pixels uses 1.9MB of RAM. When you consider that
there are usually over 100 windows open (not all windows
are visible), you start to realize the large amount of
RAM that windows use. This can lead to slow-downs.

So what Apple did was they implemented a compression system
mechanism into the window server. When a window's contents
haven't changed for a given period of time, the window server compresses them,
so they take up less memory. Since it uses a compression method that doesn't require the buffer to be fully
decompressed to do compositing, you won't notice a slowdown with this compressions
turned on.

In fact, because less memory is being used up by the window buffers,
more RAM will be available for your applications, which means
less virtual memory paging, and possibly a speedier machine.
OS: PPC
