This (p)reflate library impact or not decompression speed? hif/raw dlls and preflate dll present it unpacker files folders.

I tested all zlibwapi.dll versions that I could find since ztool..Razor12911 version from 2020-07-18 (535552 bytes) was the fastest at decompression. I also did my own compile of zlibwapi.dll 1.2.11 with MS VC 2010 and also 1.2.13 with MS VC 2010/2015/2022 -> VC 2022 1.2.13 compile produced best result but Razor12911 version was still fastest at unpacking, although not by much, speeds were pretty close. Actually only this latest 2023-07-11/512000 bytes version speed drop was noticeable for me, that's why I posted my observation.
Also, if you use MS VC and want your compile to be XP compatible you are pretty much forced to use VC 2010..yes, you can use XP platform toolset on some later MS VC versions but I had some issues with it. Never compiled with MinGW though so I can't comment on that.
