The best compression application

7 zip software image
7 zip compressed
A few days ago I tried to find information about the compression software like WinZip. Finally I found one site that displays the results of the comparison (benchmark) of the various compression techniques.

From the results displayed, apparently a common compression technique and has become the current standard, which is a zip, has a much efficiency as compared with other techniques, although in terms of speed is still faster.

One technique is good enough between the efficiency and speed is a *. 7z Open source software with its 7-zip. Even 7-zip compression results often exceed the WinRAR compression. When compared with Winzip clearly better and sometimes produces 2x the size smaller than zip. 7-zip also supports other compression formats like zip, tar, bzip2 and gzip. To read the 7-zip capability, in addition to supporting these formats, is also capable of reading formats RAR (WinRAR), cab, arj, z, cpio, rpm (Linux package), deb, lzh, split and chm (html help),. In addition, an Open Source license must also have the advantage.
