I was wondering if anyone had implemented some sort of in-game
compression to reduce the amount of memory the mud uses?

What I was debating was to try and find a way to compress strings of
text and such found in help files and descriptions until they are
accessed, and then compress them again. Would this even work? Should I
look into MCCP? Any ideas?
