Zpaq is 13K lines, which I developed from 2009 to 2016. That's about 2000 lines per year or 10 per work day. Other top compression programs were developed over a period of years and have similar size.
Zpaq is 10th on the large text benchmark. I haven't looked at the new leader, nncp. It beats phda9 and cmix by 3% but requires 6 days on 10K Cuda cores and 24 GB of RAM to compress 1 GB of text. It uses a transformer algorithm, a neural network with an attention mechanism. It far exceeds the hardware constraints of the Hutter prize.
