base122-fast 0.1.0

//! # Base122-Fast
//!
//! A high-performance Base122 implementation achieving throughput up to **4.1 Gbps (encoding)**
//! and **4.8 Gbps (decoding)** on modern hardware (e.g., AMD Ryzen 5 5600, single-threaded).
//!
//! Base122 is a binary-to-text encoding scheme that is significantly more space-efficient
//! than Base64, offering approximately **14% overhead** compared to Base64's 33%, while
//! remaining valid UTF-8.
//!
//! ## Performance
//!
//! This crate is engineered for maximum throughput using several low-level optimizations:
//! *   **SWAR (SIMD Within A Register)**: Processes 64-bit words using bitwise masks to detect
//!     illegal characters across multiple bytes simultaneously, minimizing per-byte overhead.
//! *   **Branchless Fast-Paths**: Efficiently skips escape-character checks for ASCII-compatible segments.
//! *   **Zero-Copy Strategy**: Utilizes direct pointer arithmetic and pre-allocated buffers to minimize allocations.
//! *   **Unsafe Intrinsic Speed**: Leverages `unsafe` Rust for unchecked memory access and optimized bit manipulation.
//!
//! ## Quick Start
//!
//! ```
//! # use base122_fast::{encode, decode};
//! let data = b"hello world";
//! let encoded = encode(data);
//! let decoded = decode(&encoded).expect("Failed to decode");
//! assert_eq!(data, decoded.as_slice());
//! ```
