Thanks for the update! Somehow 7z container overhead is +0.4MB AND is slower by a lot? Huh. Great numbers, need more exposure for pack format. Also, i suggest to add section to the website that shows these numbers. 1) regular archive formats vs pack 2) various containers with the same zstd inside. |

Exposure comes from enthusiasts like you.
I did not want to focus the point on speed, or say, "Look, others are bad". They are great; my point was, "Look what we can do if we update our design and code". Pack value comes from user experience, and speed is being one. I was not following the best speed or compression; I wanted an instantaneous feeling for most files. I wanted a better API, an easier CLI, improved OS integration (soon), and more safety and reliability. Tech people (including me) care so much about speed
I am happy about the results, but Pack offers much more that I like others to see.
