The do mention peazip in the following page, but they do not have
values for it in the "Comparison of efficiency" table.

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_file_archivers

An archiver is not a compressor and viceversa. Tar is an archiver but not compress v.gr. You can look at the compressor efficiency at this page http://cs.fit.edu/~mmahoney/compression/text.html, there is Peazip using deflate/zip compression but now it uses lpaq9 and paq8 (the tow of the top 5 algs) and at the http://www.maximumcompression.com/index.html

If debugging is the art of eliminate bugs in source code, is programming the art of create them?
