archivers/lzma 19.00 DragonFly

High-ratio LZMA compressor

System: DragonFly
Repository: DPorts
Maintainer: [email protected] (as in FreeBSD)
Categories: archivers
Package size: 94.3 KiB, 257.6 KiB installed

Description

This is a simple command line implementation of the LZMA compression algorithm from the LZMA SDK. It uses a raw LZMA format instead of the xz or 7z container formats, and produces compression ratios that are usually about 25-30%25 better than bzip2, and decompression speeds that are about twice as fast. The disadvantages are higher CPU and RAM requirements for compression.

In the other systems

The newest version among them is 26.04, as upstream numbers it.
