Zlip mixed with IOCP+PackerBuffer

[Misunderstood]

You don't understand what zlib does do you? Well here it is.

Just using strings with zlib:

Code:

If Len(TmpStr) > 0 Then
            TmpStr = Compress(TmpStr, lR)
            TmpStr = lR & SEP_CHAR & TmpStr
            dbytes = StrConv(TmpStr, vbFromUnicode)
            If IsConnected(i) Then
                GameServer.Sockets(i).WriteBytes dbytes
                DoEvents
            End If
          End If

does zlib need a string to enrypt? or can it encrypt byte arrays?
If it can decrypt byte arrays faster(which it should) theres probably a better way.
