[Bug 2790] New: bzip2 compresses better the release archive than gzip
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2790 Summary: bzip2 compresses better the release archive than gzip Product: Wine Version: 20050310 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: wine-files AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: jerome.bouat(a)wanadoo.fr I compressed the official release archive with bzip2 and saw the following difference: --- [j(a)localhost tmp]$ du Wine-20050310.tar.* 8,8M Wine-20050310.tar.bz2 12M Wine-20050310.tar.gz --- Compressing the release archive with bzip2 instead of gzip saves about 22% of the archive size. Since this archive is widely downloaded, bzip2 compression could save a lot of bandwidth too. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.
