  10 *      Table compression uses all the unused char codes on the symbols and
  11 *  maps these to the most used substrings (tokens). For instance, it might
  12 *  map char code 0xF7 to represent "write_" and then in every symbol where
  13 *  "write_" appears it can be replaced by 0xF7, saving 5 bytes.
  14 *      The used codes themselves are also placed in the table so that the
  15 *  decompresion can work without "special cases".
  16 *      Applied to kernel symbols, this usually produces a compression ratio
  17 *  of about 50%.
