had a promising result with https://github.com/pieroxy/lz-string:

>>> chunk.length
272728
>>> LZString.compress(chunk).length
104454

Experiencing stucks, need to put compress/decompress functions in a separate web worker.

I've minified the worker: https://gist.github.com/flavioribeiro/0a27a09ad9a836a2b241

Since char size calculation is needed, we come back with this issue: rtc-io/rtc-bufferedchannel#4

I'll try to figure out an alternative to https://github.com/rtc-io/rtc-bufferedchannel/blob/master/index.js#L212

All this transcoding thing is adding a lot of complexity on the code. I think its better to edit cdn_requester in order to encode a compressed Base64 string instead of the current one. This way, a AS3 version of https://github.com/pieroxy/lz-string is needed. 😭😭😭😭
