in thread LFSRs & binary encode / decode functions
In C or assembler, (or in Perl using pack) you can trivially reduce the size of the tables to 4MB instead of 40MB.
With a little ingenuity, you could reduce that to 1MB by expoiting the fact that each 32-bit value has 12 'spare' bits in the simple packed encoding.
Ie. For each of the 256k 32-bit values in a 1MB table, you reuse each 4 times:
... 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 0010 1100 1100 1001 1111 0000 0110 1101 ...
Say:
If you're really up against it you could get it down to a bare 73k by expoiting that there are 56 combinations of 5 nybbles in each 32-bit word.
