   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bzip2

   bzip2 is a free and open-source file compression program that uses the Burrows–Wheeler algorithm.It only compresses single files and is not a file archiver.It relies on separate external utilities such as tar for tasks such as handling multiple files, and other tools for encryption, and archive splitting.

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compress_(software)

   compress is a Unix shell compression program based on the LZW compression algorithm. [1] Compared to gzip's fastest setting, compress is slightly slower at compression, slightly faster at decompression, and has a significantly lower compression ratio. [2] 1.8 MiB of memory is used to compress the Hutter Prize data, slightly more than gzip's ...

   7-Zip is a free and open-source file archiver, a utility used to place groups of files within compressed containers known as "archives".

Version 0.1 was first publicly released ...

7. Snappy (compression) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snappy_(compression)

   Snappy (previously known as Zippy) is a fast data compression and decompression library written in C++ by Google based on ideas from LZ77 and open-sourced in 2011. [3] [4] It does not aim for maximum compression, or compatibility with any other compression library; instead, it aims for very high speeds and reasonable compression.
