bzip2			  = bzip2 -9
PPMdx			  = ppmd -o x -m220
compression		  = relative compression
improvement from gz	  = relative improvement from gzip compression
loss from best		  = relative size difference compared to using different compressors for each 
			  package and using the individually best compressor for each package.
time(s)			  = total compression time
