Abstract
Techniques are described for creating more efficient chunkfiles through the use of entropy metrics. In some examples, processing circuitry may determine an entropy value for each of a plurality of data chunks to obtain a corresponding plurality of entropy values. In some examples, processing circuitry may reorganize, based on the corresponding plurality of entropy values, the plurality of data chunks to obtain a reorganized plurality of data chunks. In some examples, processing circuitry may compress the reorganized plurality of data chunks to obtain a compressed chunkfile. In some examples, processing circuitry may store the compressed chunkfile superseding the plurality of data chunks.
