Couple questions about this, since the site also had claims about
compression rate but no details.

What's the time taken to compress as opposed to rar?
Was rar ever set to use maximum compression (which isn't the default
since it takes longer)?

Be dead easy to show "results" from 7z at max compression vs rar at
average compression and just "forget" to mention that it took 3x as long
to actually do the archiving, so i'm a little dubious about their claims
- since they don't actually mention anything about their tests except
file sizes.
