    Interesting write-up. Does anyone have any context about Fujitsu RELC? Why a proprietary algorithm? Any particular advantages or features?

      Looks like it was invented by two Fujitsu engineers, is free of patents and maybe was optimized for hardware implementation? I've linked some Japanese sources in the post, but I don't speak Japanese and the auto translation is not easy to read.
