No, I mean, I tried but I got crashes from MSC, so I gave up on it, other than srep/srep64 & lzma/lzma64 I only tried ztool, pzlib3.2.0 and precomp0.4.3 (which I abandoned mid-way due to way too long times)

That makes no sense...

When I used pzlib 3.2 my ratio at end of pzlib3 part of compression was under 50%, don't remember the exact number but it was in the 40-50% area.

I'm currently testing compression with pzlib3.0.1+srep64+lzma, will report back results when I have them, gonna take a few hours.

During compression, each time it got to the MSC part, MSC crashed, could never figure out why.

Really? OK...

Anyway, here's the weird thing though, pZLib 3.0.1, unlike pZLib 3.2, so far at least (still far from finished), give me a much worse ratio (97-100%), that said, it's not even half way through the process, so I'll wait and see.

Truth be told, I only need it to compress additional 400MB or so compared to srep64+lzma without pZLib3 and It'll be enough.

Maybe I'll re-try MSC later on.

UPDATE: Okay, pZLib 3.0.1 part of compression finished, final ratio: 106%, I'll wait and see what the final result will be.
