21 files: 8,588,002,315 byte => 4,776,969,655 bytes. Ratio 55.62%

This site reports the following results:

*.bsa
xtool(zlib)+srep+lolz
(54.5% Ratio)

I suppose the compressed byte are the same bytes as I compressed, but the result is better. Which is the configuration of LOLZ? It seems it isn't reported...

Thanks for your reply!

Any ideas?

Very likely high dictionary size, all detections on, fast bytes off etc.

What does exactly mean? Can you post here an example of the parameters you're talking about please?
