http://www.cs.indiana.edu/~cshei/nb/7-Zip.zipWe had a rainy afternoon today in the midwest, so I unplugged my notebook (got a UPS, but still...) and got to work on this. Whew, 38 projects in the source code! 8 of them didn't compile (mostly crypto ones). Don't even try running this on anything without SSE2, it won't work. I ask just one thing: compare the speed of this with the regular install. I'm wondering if this is actually any faster (and I'm now too tired to figure it out myself).

Thanks Chun Yu, its faster than the non SSE2 opt 7zip
P4 2.4GHz
System Bus: 533 Mhz
Archive size: 77mb (FoxServ)
Max compression, solid, switches: mf=bt4b fb=192 d=20m hcf=on
Original: 6:57=417seconds
P4: 4:51=291seconds
P4 was 30,2% better than original. It _IS_ much!
Both archives are NOT bit identicall, both were tested and are OK.
EDIT:
For ZIP (same archive)
Max compression, fb=255 pass=4
P4: 1.52
ORIGINAL: 2.11
Archives are bit identicall.

Both archives are NOT big identicall, both were tested and are OK.
Is one's size much different than the other?
Difference is in only few bytes...
The important question is: Is the decompressed archive bit-identical to the original tree?

It is bit identiccal when the "multi threading" is on
A few bytes different when the "multi threading" is off
But the "size on disk" are identical
Anyone here with P4 with Hyper-Threading option? Please test optimized version with HT option and w/o this option!
I tested same archive with normal compression, w/o additional switches.
Original: 2:33
P4: 1:48
P4-HT: 2.07
Please note, my CPU is not HT compatibile!
All three archives after decompression gives files bit-identical to source files.
Can anyone make forther testing? For some files P4 and normal speed are equal...

There are some undocumented switches for LZMA
lp - number of bits for Literal Pos context - from 0 to 4.
lc - number of bits in previous byte for Literal Context - from 0 to 8
pb - number of bits for Pos Context for other purposes - from 0 to 4.
Default values for them are
-m0lp=0 -m0lc=3 -m0pb=2
lp and pb are intended for periodical data when period is equal 2^value (where lp=value or pb=value).
