Hi Kees,

Many thanks for your review and suggestions!

Yes, will change it in next post.

As you can see there are 2 cases. The first case is depicted in the 1st
graph. In that case ZO__end is after VO__end. In the 2nd case, yes, we
move ZO__end to make that happen ZO__end == VO__end. In fact this patch
is not trying to make them equal, what it is trying to do is adjusting
the behaviour. We always put ZO just in the end by getting init_size
which is the deompressing buffer and ZO_INIT_SIZE, not like before we
just put ZO starting from extract_offset. We change a different way to
get the starting position of ZO.
