I need to compress large-ish files, around 50-100 megs each. I wonder if anyone knows whether zip or gz format is easier on RAM. Is it correct that both methods require about double the amount of RAM as the file size? Is one preferable over the other under low memory conditions? Are there any other considerations when choosing between the two?
