Or you could have read the README that covers this in some details. It
not only says that you should use tar to preserve ownership and
permissions but also gives the commands needed :)

I tried p7zip last night, on a 2GB VMWare disk image, and the compressed
file was 10% smaller than rzip gave, which was the best compressor I'd
found to date.
