Thanks. 1st, we do not normally top post on this list. Second, I do not remember the exact options I use. I can look them up, but they are going to be surely useless ( they are for a custom process with does several things with files, it uses gzip ( in Fc backups ), plus xz ( for some files which need to be kept for a long time and are nearly never needed ), plus lzo ( as I found lzo compressed temporary files were faster than uncompressed ones ), and a lot of code. But in the development process we did a full comparison of several compressor, and found what I stated with bzip2, it was surpassed in every combination of options by xz ( plain bzip2, plain xz ).
