When the byte count of written data is equal to the size of the input

It means that you have written all the chunk to lzlib. It does not mean
that lzlib has produced all the output nor that you have read all the
output from lzlib.
Also, is there a different between
LZ_compress_finished(...) == 1
and
LZ_compress_read() == 0
A world of difference. 'LZ_compress_read() == 0' means nothing:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
http://www.nongnu.org/lzip/manual/lzlib_manual.html#Compression-functions
The 'LZ_compress_read' function reads up to size bytes from the
stream pointed to by encoder, storing the results in buffer.
The return value is the number of bytes actually read. This might
be less than size; for example, if there aren't that many bytes left in
the stream or if more bytes have to be yet written with the
'LZ_compress_write' function. Note that reading less than size bytes is
not an error.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
For example, the member trailer is not produced until LZ_compress_finish
is called, and is not guaranteed to have been read until
'LZ_compress_finished() == 1'.
