PA2017 build 74 - Testing 7-zip with DMG files
-
Not sure how to report this one as I cannot send a sample 7-zip though due to it being 166Mb in size!
I have a new WD My Passport Ultra 2Tb Wild Berry drive and I compressed all the useless files in the root into a PA archive and a 7-ZIP archive. 7-ZIP won but only by 500Kb. When I tested the PA archive everything was ok but when I tested the 7-ZIP archive, PA stalled at 55% and had to use Task Manager to End Task.
WinRAR 5.40 had no problems testing the 7-ZIP archive!

@ckit can you upload it via https://wetransfer.com/ and send it over in email please? It would be great to have actual sample! Thanks

Sure, sending now…

@ckit also, it is excellent sample… it seems to work the best if we use plzma and not all the filters with Optimized Strong… in that case, compression is lower than 7z, as it should be.
