FLASHZIP 1.0.0

is a file archiver and folders, currently with DOS interface offered excellent performance in the compression of all file types. It uses a compression method that I implemented in speed (ROLZ) with arithmetic coding. Retains remarkable speed in compression and decompression. It uses little memory in the minimum configuration with excellent results with all types of files. Enabled with version 1.0.0 the creation of self extraction Archive with which I intended to ensure compatibility for those who want to use it as an archiver. Adding also the possibility of extra compression with the switch "-mxn" (where n is a number from 0 to 7). Added support for multiprocessing with the ability to use as many as 8 cores.

On "typical" data, WinRAR is slightly better.

http://www.maximumcompression.com/data/summary_mf.php

WinRAR 4.1b3 compresses the test archive by 72.6% in 49 seconds.
FlashZIP 0.99b8 -m2 -c7 compresses by 70.7% in 65 seconds.
FreeARC 0.666 compresses to 74.3% in 24 seconds.

cf. also http://www.maximumcompression.com/

WinFlashzip GUI 1.1.0 Released

WinFlashzip GUI 1.1.0 is a file archiver and folders, currently with Windows GUI through the huge performance in the compression of all file types. It uses a compression method that I implemented in speed (ROLZ) with arithmetic coding. Retains remarkable speed in compression and decompression. It uses little memory in the minimum configuration with excellent results with all types of files. Enabled since version 1.0.0 the creation of self extraction Archive with which I intended to ensure compatibility for those who want to use it as an archiver. Adding also the possibility in the DOS version to use the extra compression with the switch "-mxn" (where n is a number from 0 to 3) as well as to manipulate the size Dictionary "-kn" (from 0 to 7). Added support for multiprocessing with the ability to use as many as 8 cores. Connecting the extension with the program WFlaship can directly open your files and launch their content.
