Unless something changed, its exactly opposite in my experiences. 7zip never looked like skipping uncompressable data(but maybe it changed now?) to me and was much slower than FA -m5, only FA -mx seemed like to not skip. FA -m5 is the quickest LZMA I know, skipping everything that is compressed - the jumps it make during compression are very, very visible. Thats what arc.groups file is also for btw.
And for decompression, 7zip cannot even compare, it is using only single thread while FA can use 4 threads(if you compressed with -m5). Good luck beating that with 7zip.
