Hi,
I was wondering who the editor for the NSIS script would be pls?
Wanted to make a feedback that i have been trying the compiler (NSIS) since R20000+ and have been tweaking to get the best compression ratios between all the modes available.
I have noticed the script set the compression to :
;SetCompressor bzip2
SetCompressor lzma
Which is lzma compression per file.
However, i have found that lzma (compress whole) method is better, proven by a smaller installer.
(Yes, i have tried to compress alot ALOT of them, basically, i update my Revision everyday......)
The latest R23386 has this ratio:
Using lzma (compress whole) compression.
EXE header size: 37376 / 34816 bytes
Install code: (117786 bytes)
Install data: (669064221 bytes)
Uninstall code+data: (15278 bytes)
Compressed data: 557349227 / 669197285 bytes
CRC (0xFEEB8A14): 4 / 4 bytes
Total size: 557386607 / 669232105 bytes (83.2%)
So, could someone please amend the script and set from lzma to lzma (compress whole) instead?
Thanks!
