PIK is building on guetzli and butteraugli, gives about -55 % less bytes than JPEG for the same butteraugli score. Decoding speed is 2/3 that of JPEG. Encoding speed is impractically slow in this version. PIK aims at delivering very high quality photographs with minimal bandwidth and decoding (cpu and memory) costs.

- 55% less bytes is a double negative so its 55% more :-)
