Zstd at its maximum compression level gives a compression ratio close to lzma, lzham, and ppmx, and performs better [vague] than lza or bzip2. [ improper synthesis? ] [ 9 ] [ 10 ] Zstandard reaches the current Pareto frontier , as it decompresses faster than any other currently available algorithm with similar or better compression ratio.
The EGG format is used to apply multiple different compression algorithms, choosing the algorithm based on the file extension. For example, it may use Bzip2 to compress .txt files, while using Deflate for files with a .exe extention. For .com or .sys files, ALZip uses the ALZ algorithm. The ALZ algorithm is slower but has a high compression ratio.
7-Zip is a free and open-source file archiver, a utility used to place groups of files within compressed containers known as "archives". It is developed by Igor Pavlov and was first released in 1999. It is developed by Igor Pavlov and was first released in 1999.
Smallpdf is a Swiss online web-based PDF software, founded in 2013. [2] It offers free version with limited features to compress, convert and edit PDF documents. [3] And its paid version offers advanced features like OCR, compress, and more. [4]
compress the individual files, and then archive into a single file; archive into a single data block, and then compress. The order matters (these operations do not commute), and the latter is solid compression. In Unix, compression and archiving are traditionally separate operations, which allows one to understand this distinction:
Ark is a file archiver and compressor developed by KDE and included in the KDE Applications software bundle. It supports various common archive and compression formats including zip , 7z , rar , lha and tar (both uncompressed and compressed with e.g. gzip , bzip2 , lzip or xz ).
The .ZIP file format was designed by Phil Katz of PKWARE and Gary Conway of Infinity Design Concepts. The format was created after Systems Enhancement Associates (SEA) filed a lawsuit against PKWARE claiming that the latter's archiving products, named PKARC, were derivatives of SEA's ARC archiving system.

The LZ4 algorithm aims to provide a good trade-off between speed and compression ratio. Typically, it has a smaller (i.e., worse) compression ratio than the similar LZO algorithm, which in turn is worse than algorithms like DEFLATE.
