LZMA provides very high compression ratio and fast decompression. The core of the LZMA utils is Igor Pavlov's LZMA SDK containing the actual LZMA encoder/decoder. LZMA utils add a few scripts which provide gzip-like command line interface and a couple of other LZMA related tools. Also provides: - Average compression ratio 30% better than that of gzip and 15% better than that of bzip2. - Decompression speed is only little slower than that of gzip, being two to five times faster than bzip2. - In fast mode, compresses faster than bzip2 with a comparable compression ratio. - Achieving the best compression ratios takes four to even twelve times longer than with bzip2. However. this doesn't affect decompressing speed. - Very similar command line interface than what gzip and bzip2 have. - The patch for GNU tar integrates LZMA compression with the tar command in the same way as with gzip and bzip2.
