1. A method comprising:

  • providing a throughput threshold for a communications channel between a first device and a second device;

    tracking whether a first compressed data provided through said communications channel exceeds said throughput threshold, wherein said first compressed data is provided by a first compression algorithm at said first device, said first compressed data is decompressed by a first decompression algorithm at said second device, and said first compression algorithm and first decompression algorithm are symmetrical; and

    providing, if said throughput threshold is exceeded by said first compressed data, a second compressed data through said communications channel, wherein said second compressed data is provided by a second compression algorithm at said first device, said second compressed data is decompressed by a second decompression routine at said second device, and said second compression algorithm and second decompression algorithm are asymmetrical.
