3. XZ Utils - Wikipedia

   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.

4. bzip2 - Wikipedia

   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.

5. LZ4 (compression algorithm) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LZ4_(compression_algorithm)

   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.
