  • Removed collecting files content in memory

  • Read files content by chunks

  • Removed redundant conversions
    e.g. struct.unpack('{}s'.format(self.cbLength), file.read(self.cbLength)) -> file.read(self.cbLength)

  • Added the cli argument --optimize to enable optimized memory mode: no json conversion, no bytes.hex() logging etc

It may be useful when handle large files.
