For dumps or other uses, 7za -mx=3 / xz -3 is your best bet. That has a 4 MB buffer, compression ratios within 15-25% of current 7zip (or histzip), and goes at 30MB/s on my box, which is still 8x faster than the status quo (going by a 1GB benchmark). Trying to get quick-and-dirty long-range matching into LZMA isn't feasible for me personally and there may be inherent technical difficulties. Still, I left a note on the 7-Zip boards as folks suggested; feel free to add anything there: https://sourceforge.net/p/sevenzip/discussion/45797/thread/73ed3ad7/ Thanks for the reply, Randall _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
