flip111 commented 4 years ago

I saw in turbobench.ini the following line LZMA9Z lzma,9mt2:d29:a1:fb273:mf=bt4:mc999:lc8:lp0:pb2

What is the meaning of the colon : and mf=? Also where can i read about what things like pb mean and what numbers after that are accepted?

Thanks for your answer that explains it. Would you consider an addition to the readme to say that extra parameters can be passed to algorithms?
