Just a small example: using 4 and 6 threads in wine. It's a small improvement, but I only have 4 cores and threads. Your cpu might use 4 cores and 8 threads, if you haven't done that already. These tests where done using the command line version 9.13. The wine version is current git. The wine version seems to be faster than the native 32bit version. There might also be differences in the compiled 7zip executables (different optimization options?). These show the cpu usage (%), R/U (MIPS), Rating (MIPS). On the left side compressing, on the right side decompressing. $wine 7za.exe -mmt=6 b (32bit, 6 threads) Avr: 355 2401 8537 376 2786 10484 Tot: 366 2594 9511 $wine 7za.exe b (32bit, 4 threads) Avr: 279 2357 6584 388 2797 10847 Tot: 333 2577 8715 $7za -mmt=6 b (64bit, 6 threads) Avr: 365 2638 9628 374 2739 10258 Tot: 370 2688 9943 $7za b (64bit, 4 threads) Avr: 330 2735 9033 382 2741 10457 Tot: 356 2738 9745 $./7za -mmt=6 b (32bit, 6 threads) Avr: 365 2342 8552 378 2371 8956 Tot: 371 2356 8754 $./7za b (32bit, 4 threads) Avr: 339 2392 8116 385 2382 9173 Tot: 362 2387 8644 How fast is your native linux executable? Could you try different thread counts and compare them?
