Dear Claudius Regn,

CR> Anyway: is there some resource in the web with reliable,
CR> comparable information on compression algorithms?

Not on algorithms - many algorithms have not been described by their
authors. We have just programs that implement the algorithms.

A good benchmark page is       Archive Comparison Test

ACT v2 is a monthly report comparing 149 different compression
programs (archivers) for speed and ability to compress files. The
archivers are tested on TXT, EXE, WAV, TIF and multiple files. It also
includes a checklist of special features some archivers can perform
and the e-mail addresses of the authors.
