I had a lot of work to do last days (f.e. compressing 2 games at the same time is a really pain). On weekend i will participate into test some usefull stuff with xtool.

Cheers and good work, as always ;)

Welcome and I look forward to it

Another test result here used on characters.vpp_pc from Saints Row Gat out of Hell Game. Ztool(pzlib) and precomp doesn't detect and recompress this file so the Competitors are Xtool, Pzlib3, reflate and Pzlib3+reflate compressed with srep+lzma. Here are the results

Thanks, I'm now thinking of pushing forward the first working codec in xtool.

Since the new rewritten scanner seems improved.

A few ideas have popped up since the last time I posted the tests so I may post a few more tests, regarding the processing part.

Welcome and bring it on, it's a pleasure to help out.

Test 4

The rewritten new xtool project is really surprising lol, I didn't know I can draw even more speed from just rewriting the code... Unless if I made a mess in the older versions, I wish I had the old sources just to see what the hell I wrote in the code editor.

Here are my benchmarks:

What I need from this test is you guys to post the cmd output.

if possible compress the outputs made my all the test programs and post results.

Eh, i guess just drag&drop file to batch? Because it doesn't work "The command ProcProfile64.exe is wrong" or something.

^Yes.

I guess I have to work harder on this :)

As you can see, ztool just gave up on this, at least given options :D

Thanks for the tests guys. Here's another one, I added reflate lib support on this test, the inputs I'm interested in is data where reflate is required otherwise it will be just the same results as test number 4.

Png images, pdfs, linux isos and zip files contain streams that can be processed by reflate, games however that's DOOM and Dishonored 2 afaik.

So just like test 4, post cmd output.

I just like to point out, I'm not interested in the size that much but memory used and the time it took to perform the test.

These are the results of the tests I have performed:
