Additional information
This streaming lossless compressor, available on the web at www.deplump.com, has been used by thousands (as evidenced by the associated Google analytics entry). It represents one of the largest-scale deployed Bayesian nonparametric models to date (capable of unbounded, streaming compression) and achieves 1.2 bit/character text compression, which is within the bounds estimated for the entropy of written English by Shannon. The authors are not aware of any lossless streaming compressor with superior performance.
