I made some test on multiple of the compression algorithms and tools found on linux.

## Test setup
The algorithms were tested on the following situations:
 - **Lots of data with mixed types and sizes:** A lot of various types of files of varying sizes. The total size of all the files is 4.36 GiB
 - **Non-compressible data:** A lot of barely compressible files, in thes case jpeg images. The total size of all the files is 0.62 GiB
 - **A lot of many small text files:** A lot of small text files, all the files are under 1MB in size. The total size of all the files is 0.96 GiB
 - **A few text files:** A few text files. The total size of all the files is 9.54 MiB
 - **A few mixed files:** A few files varying in size and type. The total size of all the files is 6.66 MiB

The algorithms tested were the following:
 - XZ
 - LZMA
 - PGZIP (parallel gzip)
 - PBZIP2 (parallel bzip2)
 - LZ4
 - PLZIP (parallel lzip)
 - ZSTD
 - RAR
 - 7ZIP
 - ZIP

The tests were run on a system with the following specs
 - Ryzen 9 3900X CPU
 - 32 GB DDR4 2133 MT/s memory
 - nvme gen4 ssd
 - Arch linux kernel version 6.12.8
 - xfs file system

Notes: Algorithms noyed with (Best compression) were run with the options for best compression otherwise default options are used.

### Commands

These were the commands used for each algorithm:

| Algorithm                | Command                                   |
| :----------------------- | :---------------------------------------- |

| LZ4                      | tar c -I"lz4" -f <archive> <dir>          |
| LZ4 (Best compression)   | tar c -I"lz4 -12" -f <archive> <dir>      |
| LZMA                     | tar c -I"lzma -T0" -f <archive> <dir>     |
| LZMA (Best compression)  | tar c -I"lzma -9 -T0" -f <archive> <dir>  |
| PBZIP2                   | tar c -Ipbzip2 -f <archive> <dir>         |
| PGZIP                    | tar c -I"pigz" -f <archive> <dir>         |
| PGZIP (Best compression) | tar c -I"pigz --best" -f <archive> <dir>  |
| PLZIP                    | tar c -I"plzip" -f <archive> <dir>        |
| PLZIP (Best compression) | tar c -I"plzip -9" -f <archive> <dir>     |
| RAR                      | rar a <archive> <dir>                     |
| XZ                       | tar c -I"xz -T0" -f <archive> <dir>       |
| XZ (Best compression)    | tar c -I"xz -9 -T0" -f <archive> <dir>    |
| ZIP                      | zip -r <archive> <dir>                    |
| ZSTD                     | tar c -I"zstd -T0" -f <archive> <dir>     |
| ZSTD (Best compression)  | tar c -I"zstd -19 -T0" -f <archive> <dir> |


## Results

All the tables have the next categories:
 - **Time:** The time the compression process took. Lower is better.
 - **Compession:** The compression rate after the process. Higher is better.
 - **Time normalized compression:** The compression normalized to the time obtained ny dividing the compression by the time. Higher is better.
