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.
