System and method for using packed compressed buffers for improved client server communications

Abstract From the Canadian patent

A method of batching multiple sets of responses on a server and sending the responses to a client in a single batch (i.e. a "chained" or "packed" batch). The sets of responses may be each be obfuscated and/or compressed. Once the batch is received by the client each set is processed individually. The client may be configured to communicate the size of an uncompressed set of responses that it can handle. The server may use this information to create sets of responses that are the correct size and may or may not compress the sets of responses. The server may chain the sets of responses and may continue to chain sets compressed or not, until the server's buffer is full or close to full. The …
