cdrtools_from_Schily | NTLFN problem of 7-ZIP | 7-ZIP vs ZIP (Announce)

posted by Zyzzle, 24.07.2010, 22:51

Strange, but I get the message "out of swap space" with 4.65 and 9.13. I am using CWSDPMI r7. My settings are -mx9 and md=32m. It even comes up at mx5 and -md=32m. I'm using a RAM disk as TEMP. The error occurs on all my systems -- it even occurs on a DOS system with >2GB free XMS memory! Could be some >2Gb bug, but it also happens on other systems with 1GB and 2GB total system RAM. It is strange, as some files compress fine, but at 80% - 99% complete the error comes up.

I do *not* get that message with the SAME settings with 4.58! So, for now I am sticking with 4.58 unless someone can give me a compelling reason to switch. It seems the 9.13 version is 5-10% slower while still giving exact same file sizes as 4.65 (with same commandline options ex, -mx5... So I see no compelling reason to switch to 9.13 at all.
