   7-zip.org. 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. [2] 7-Zip has its own archive format called 7z, but can read and write several others.

3. Express Zip - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Express_Zip

   Express Zip File Compression Software is a file compression and archiving software program developed by NCH Software for Windows and Mac OS first released in 2010. [1] It offers the ability to open, manage, archive, extract, and compress digital documents into .zip, .tar, .tgz, .wim, .arj, and .lzh as well as additional archive formats. [2]

4. bzip2 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bzip2

   Yes. 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 for tasks such as handling multiple files, encryption, and archive-splitting. bzip2 was initially released in 1996 by Julian Seward.

5. gzip - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gzip

   Website. www.gnu.org /software /gzip /. gzip is a file format and a software application used for file compression and decompression. The program was created by Jean-loup Gailly and Mark Adler as a free software replacement for the compress program used in early Unix systems, and intended for use by GNU (from where the "g" of gzip is derived).

6. XZ Utils - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XZ_Utils

   XZ Utils can compress and decompress the xz and lzma file formats. Since the LZMA format has been considered legacy, [2] XZ Utils by default compresses to xz. In most cases, xz achieves higher compression rates than alternatives like zip, [3] gzip and bzip2. Decompression speed is higher than bzip2, but lower than gzip.

7. PeaZip - Wikipedia

   PeaZip. PeaZip is a free and open-source file manager and file archiver [5] for Microsoft Windows, ReactOS, [6] Linux, [7][8][9] MacOS [10] and BSD [11][12] by Giorgio Tani. It supports its native PEA archive format [13] (supporting compression, multi-volume split, and flexible authenticated encryption and integrity check schemes) and other ...

8. ZIP (file format) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZIP_(file_format)

   A ZIP file may contain one or more files or directories that may have been compressed. The ZIP file format permits a number of compression algorithms, though DEFLATE is the most common. This format was originally created in 1989 and was first implemented in PKWARE, Inc. 's PKZIP utility, [2] as a replacement for the previous ARC compression ...

9. Snappy (compression) - Wikipedia

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

   Compression speed is 250 MB/s and decompression speed is 500 MB/s using a single core of a circa 2011 "Westmere" 2.26 GHz Core i7 processor running in 64-bit mode. The compression ratio is 20–100% lower than gzip. [5] Snappy is widely used in Google projects like Bigtable, MapReduce and in compressing data for Google's internal RPC systems.
