In the end, even if it were slightly longer, I would have chose 7-zip because it was ROCK SOLID, and the interface (without tweaking) was far more intuitive.Īnd, last thing I tested that I didn’t on first pass, was the decompression. I conducted a second test – using the folders that had hung w PEAZIP (no issue) and using some rather large folders.ħ-zip with maxed compression settings were actually faster on those larger folders. So, went with PeaZip.īut, in practice, I got annoyed (to say the least) at a few things:ġ) It would sometimes hang (which COULD be tolerable, if not for #2 – you don’t know which it is)Ģ) It would take an incredibly (unreasonably) long time with the settings at maxed out compressionģ) When opening the zipped file, the interface was far less intuitive (all files and folders listed on one level – I didn’t spend much time trying to find out if there was a way to change that, given 1 & 2 above) On “paper” from my research, it appeared that PeaZip was that utility app.Īfter a few test runs on a limited scale it seemed like the better (more space saving vs 7-zip). The stream is used by Windows for security purposes it may be used to determine whether a file has been created locally or been downloaded from the Internet.Ībout a year or two ago, I was looking for a compression utility that would be able to squeeze out the most space savings, as I had hundreds of folders to zip. On Windows, 7-Zip 22.00 adds support for the -snz switch, which propagates the Zone.Identifier stream to extract files. -snon : store owner/group names in archive.-snoi : store owner/group ids in archive or set owner/group ids from archive to extracted files.Last but not least, Linux users may use the following two new switches with TAR archives: Additionally, 7-Zip may store file timestamps with high precision in tar/pax archives using the switches ttar -mm=pax -mtp=3 -mtc -mta. 7-Zip can create TAR archives in POSIX tar format using the switches -ttar -mm=pax or -ttar -mm=posix now. TAR archive support has seen several improvements in 7-Zip 22.00. The file system is optimized for flash and solid state drive storage solutions.
Apple introduced the Apple File System in Mac OS 10.13 and on iOS several years ago. The new version of the archiver supports the extraction of Apple File System APFS images. 7-Zip 22.00 brings along with it several new features that extend the functionality of the application.
