L33THAK0R: From what I have experienced with LOLZ so far, its operation is a bit more unusual compared to the standard LZMA. A given result cannot be reproduced, exactly byte, as with more commercial compressors. (Given compressed file size, like enwik8-10 results.) Certain switches of "Arc.exe" also affect the degree of final compression, I'm thinking here of the "-ds" switch, which is the default in principle or even if you (not) define it the final result may be different, say with "-dses/dsns" than otherwise.. LOLZ can sometimes be better without -dt/dtb, in some cases, than if we set everything to the max.

This small image shows the results of data files precompressed with xZLib+srep:m3f:a0 mode, and separately compressed to 7z, with the same compression settings. The difference between them is whether or not "-ds" or "-dses" switch was used during precompression. We would think that the end result would be the same if LZMA/LOLZ final compression were used for that archive.
