Note
This project has potential to reduce the costs of swaps and other transactions with large calldata payloads on L2s by a significant amount. It is intended to be used with ERC-4337 and other account abstraction methods, such as Gnosis Safes that allow for delegatecalling theCallKompressorcontract.
op-kompressor is a suite of contracts that allows for relaying compressed abi-encoded payloads to L2 chains (like Optimism) where calldata is an expensive resource.

- Run Length Encoding - RLE is great for Ethereum calldata because it's often the case that there are many repeated values in a given payload. The downside
of RLE is that space efficiency for payloads with many unique values is poor. This is why
op-kompressorsupports a hybrid scheme that uses RLE for zero bytes (the most commonly repeated byte in calldata). For certain niche use cases, RLE may be a better choice than the hybrid scheme.
