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 at winehq.org
ReportedBy: jerome.bouat at wanadoo.fr
I compressed the official release archive with bzip2
and saw the following difference:
---
[j at 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.
