Creating a compression tunnel

I'm trying to compress all traffic on port 6999 and pi开发者_开发技巧pe it out onto port 7000. I was thinking of creating a tunnel for this. I would like to use Intel's performance primitive compression library rather than gzip et al.

Any thoughts or ideas greatly appreciated.

Many thanks in advance,

$ echo 'hello world' > a
$ nc -l 6999 | gzip | nc -l 7000 &
[1] 3004
$ nc localhost 6999 < a
$ nc localhost 7000 > b
[1]+  Done                    nc -l 6999 | gzip | nc -l 7000
$ gzip -d < b > c
$ md5sum a b c
