More than 100,000 of my visitors participated in this poll about the possible faster installations of my repacks. The current results show that majority of you would like to get a faster installers at cost of a small size increase.
OK then, here’s the public test of a new algo (codename ‘Lolly’ – NOT ‘loli’, you pervert!). The testset is pretty big (3.5 GB) and it contains four sample archives: one of them was made with my current algo and the other three were made with ‘Lolly’ with different compression options.
The point of this test is to gather information about decompression speed on different systems. If you want to participate, please follow the instructions below:
- Download the following RARs (if you’re planning to whine about small RARs and still can’t use JDownloader2 – please leave, you’re too noob for this test):
