To anyone who cares
I have run through most of the extra crap and printed 107 pages of raw
compression results. The short version (averages) is:
Bzip2 Compress Gzip
Uncompressed (same for all) about 5M
Compressed 0.95 M 1.84 M 1.17
Time(sec) 8.26 1.27 7.54
Ratio(uncom. to com.(:1)) 5.24 2.69 4.26
Percent(of compressed
after compress) 21.37 39 25
Megs's processed/s 0.52 2.4 2.9
When you multiply it out with the results that I would send to anyone at
request, the numbers are a bit off. Scientifically speaking, that is. The
only one I remember was that the average on compress was 2.72 instead of
2.69. Whooo. Big deal. I'll just write it into the "Error Margin" part.
Okay, time to go. Till next time, Peace!
