armlink gathers information about the content of data sections before choosing the most appropriate compression algorithm to generate the smallest image.
If compression is appropriate, armlink can only use one data compressor
for all the compressible data sections in the image. Different compression algorithms might
be tried on these sections to produce the best overall size. Compression is applied
automatically if:
Compressed data size + Size of decompressor < Uncompressed data size
When a compressor has been chosen, armlink adds the decompressor to the
code area of your image. If the final image does not contain any compressed data, no
decompressor is added.
