I think the ultimate speed options for 7-Zip are "-mx1 -m0=bzip2". (It's Deflate is more optimal than others, i.e. creates smaller files, but it's a little slower due to that.)

Elinks browser v0.13-20080425

Change? This part of the 22 June README.DOS file is not in the 25 Jun file:

* A packet driver is necessary for offline browsing. This requirement may be removed in the future but currently, due to lack of working pipe(2), which is required for interprocess communication, a stripped down socketpair(2) implementation is used as a simple workaround.
