Does the compression run on the fly when imaging a drive?

@klango what do you mean with "compression running on the fly" ?

whether the data compression on the image is done as the image is acquired, or after the acquiring process.

joachimmetz commented 4 years ago

both the ewftools and libewf can compressed the source (image) data during the acquisition process
