I spent so much time looking for an efficient compression algorithm for audio and movies … until I finally understood there are already compressed X) However it allow me to discover zst, wich is uncredible with text : 35M test.log 801K test.7z 32 test.log.7z 46 test.log.tar.bz2 45 test.log.tar.gz 108 test.log.tar.xz 22 test.log.tar.zst 2,1M test.tar.bz2 8,1M test.tar.gz 724K test.tar.xz 1,1M test.tar.zst 8,1M test.zip
minus-squareUnrepentantAlgebra@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·2 months agoAm I reading that correctly that test.log.7z compressed 35 mB of text into 32 bytes?
minus-squarerbn@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 months agoAnd .tar.zst into 22!? What was that log file? Millions of identical characters?
