Worries about tANS?
RANS uses compact table -- at the cost of speed. https://github.com/rygorous/ryg_rans Unfortunately, there are bugs in the repository, you should not use the code as is. It is better to rewrite the code -- it is quite simple when you understand it. Author's blog (http://fgiesen.wordpress.com/) contains a lot of details and is very interesting.
