Probably worth noting that bzip2 also did by far the worst in this. ~7x larger files than the best bzip3. Large memory use is generally required for good compression. I'm curious how well gzip would have handled this though, as it's generally low memory too, and all the others in that list have FAR more than 8M memory used.
