    To save even more data, replace every symbol with A. Then just store the amount of As.

      Would it be better to use A’s and B’s? We could half the necessary length of a symbol by assigning a certain combination of A’s and B’s to a symbol. And if characters take up too much space we could use 1’s and 0’s instead!

        To save sending the tree every time, we could just have a fixed layout of letters and symbols. This would have the advantage that we could put them in order, which would be easier to work with.
