Hi,
I used gzip command to compress a huge tar file. But I saw that compression % was more than 100%.
It might have inflated instead , probably because tar file is already packed properly.
So I thought of unzippping it. Now after unzip I expected the tar file to be of less size than... (12 Replies)

How good is the compression rate of gzip when you use tar with the gzip option? I am pretty amazed that a 1 GB file was reduced to 1019K. This is what I did.
tar -cvf tar_test.tar.gz -T /list_of_files
ls -hl

gznew
GZNEW(1) General Commands Manual GZNEW(1)NAME
gznew - recompress .Z files to .gz files
SYNOPSIS
gznew [ -ftv9PK] [ name.Z ... ]
DESCRIPTION
gznew recompresses files from .Z (compress) format to .gz (gzip) format. If you want to recompress a file already in gzip format, rename
the file to force a .Z extension then apply gznew.
OPTIONS -f Force recompression from .Z to .gz format even if a .gz file already exists.
-t Tests the new files before deleting originals.
-v Verbose. Display the name and percentage reduction for each file compressed.
-9 Use the slowest compression method (optimal compression).
-P Use pipes for the conversion to reduce disk space usage.
-K Keep a .Z file when it is smaller than the .gz file
SEE ALSO gzip(1), gzmore(1), gzdiff(1), gzgrep(1), gzforce(1), gzexe(1), compress(1)BUGS
gznew does not maintain the time stamp with the -P option if cpmod(1) is not available and touch(1) does not support the -r option.
