Message-ID: <1993Jan23.204122.8937@sfu.ca> Sender: news@sfu.ca Organization: Simon Fraser University, Burnaby, B.C., Canada Date: Sat, 23 Jan 1993 20:41:22 GMT Lines: 823 I've found the following article in comp.compression quite interesting ... so just forward it here in case you don't read that group ... ----- Article: 6119 of comp.compression Newsgroups: comp.compression From: afc@mace.cc.purdue.edu (Greg Flint) Subject: SUMMARY: Four tests of 19 MSDOS archivers and 6 file compressors Message-ID: <C1ApnM.73p@mentor.cc.purdue.edu> Sender: news@mentor.cc.purdue.edu (USENET News) Organization: Purdue University Date: Sat, 23 Jan 1993 07:18:57 GMT Lines: 807 DISCLAIMER: ---------- Your results could be quite different from mine due to factors such as disk speed, disk fragmentation, disk caching, RAM size and TSRs loaded. SUMMARY: ------- The fastest archiver and de-archiver were PKZIP 2.04c and its companion PKUNZIP. The greatest compression was achieved by ha 0.98 although it was the second slowest (trailed only by "scrnch"). RESULTS: ------- The following four tests were run on a DFI 486/33 EISA with a Fujitsu 500M drive (disk caching disabled) with 8 Meg of RAM running DOS 5.0. No TSRs were loaded. Times are rounded to the nearest second. Test 1: 42 files, ~2.28 Mbytes, simulates full disk backup Test 2: 88 files, ~0.71 Mbytes, small ".bas" and ".pas" files Test 3: 11 files, ~1.05 Mbytes, ASCII word processing output Test 4: 17 files, ~1.19 Mbytes, various graphics formats Archivers tested: arc 6.02 arj 2.30 arj 2.39a dwc a5.01 ha 0.98 hpack 0.75 hpack 0.78 hyper 2.5 lha 2.13 pak 2.51 pkpak 3.61 pkzip 0.92 * pkzip 1.1 * pkzip 1.93 * pkzip 2.04c ** sqz 1.08 zip 1.9p1 *** zoo 2.00 zoo 2.10 * = unzipped with pkzip 1.1's pkunzip ** = unzipped with pkzip 2.04c's pkunzip *** = unzipped with Info-Zip's unzip Compressors tested: compress diet 1.44 huf sqpc 1.31 scrnch File storage tools tested (also archivers w/"store" option): arj 2.30 arj 2.39a cpio ha 0.98 pkzip 2.04c tar zip 1.9p1 I can provide details on the amount of compression for each of the files in each of the tests, but I haven't included it in this posting because the article length would become excessive. (Those details and the contents of this file are currently stored in a QPRO 4.0 ".wq1" file where I can sort the various columns with ease.) REQUEST: ------- If you know of any archivers/compressors that I can readily add to my test suite, please contact me at one the following address. =============================================================================== Greg Flint | Purdue University Computing Center | afc@klaatu.cc.purdue.edu Systems Pgmr, | 1408 Mathematical Science Building | flint@purccvm.bitnet Supercomputer | West Lafayette, IN 47907-1408 | purdue!klaatu.cc!afc Group | PHONE: 317-494-1787 | FAX: 317-494-0566 \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// TEST 1 \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Source: 42 files 2,277,585 bytes 1 = First 16140 primes, 1 per line 2 - 27 = List of words starting with A ...
