      How much improvement could Binomial bring to the download/storage size because the download is almost 100GB!

      Around 15-20%. Crunch’s RDO mode is low quality. I’m surprised it’s so popular honestly. I cut many corners in crunch to make it encode fast. I guess fast+free is very attractive.

      So say it’s a 100GB game to download and 70% is texture data so 70GB. Maybe they’d save 10-14GB per game download. I’m not sure what that would be in CDN costs over the lifetime of the game. It’s got to be millions of dollars. Is there a capex cost of slower compression though?

      You either save size, or increase quality at same size, or you can ship more textures (or some at higher resolutions). It’s all about having more tradeoffs.

          Yup. Speed, size, quality.

          This is why I'm no longer working on BC1-5 codecs. I'm now focusing on solutions for BC6H/BC7/ASTC/PVRTC and universal. Also, I'm putting an attribution required clause into the crunch license. I originally used ZLIB to get as many people as possible to use the codec.

          Like with intermediate video codecs such as Apple’s ProRes, it makes sense to bias for speed and quality during editing and then bias for quality and size for distribution.

          That's what we did on Halo Wars 1. During normal development, we optimized for low encoding times. For shipping builds, we let the build server spend time optimizing for size.
