after running over 7zip, being mentioned in
this thread, i just did a quick test about how well it was performing.
downloaded and decompressed the xfrog-plants zip, having around 94.5 mb compressed, 147 mb uncompressed.
ran 7zip, choosing maximum compression settings, archive size 49.8 (!) mb, time taken to compress, about 3 minutes
winrar: took about 2 minutes, archived to .rar, 86.7 mb
anyone got results for other archivers, so we could compare them a bit?
