Sur un Tungsten T, la compression/décompression est proche de 1Mbyte/sec voir 1.7Mbyte/sec pour certaines applications spécifiques. Pour exemple, un fichier de 100kb prends 1/10 de seconde sur une machine sous PalmOS5 et 2-3 secondes sur une machine sous PalmOS4.
FlyZip XR2.5 peut être utilisé sur toutes machines à partir de Palm OS 3.2. Il est gratuit pour les utilisateurs enregistrés et coûte $19.95 au lieu de $24.95.

CITATION
ELEGANT ALGORITHMS RELEASES FLYZIP XR 2.5, DATA COMPRESSION UTILITY, FOR PALM POWERED HANDHELDS AND SMARTPHONES
Hits 1Mbyte/sec target of data compression speed
RIGA, Latvia, 25th of August, 2003 – Elegant Algorithms, a leading provider of innovative data compression solutions for the Palm OS® mobile computer users, announced the release of FlyZip XR 2.5 with ARM-native support and unique functionality of memory card usage. Powerful compression engine can be used also by any third party application through FlyZip XR 2.5 SDK.
FlyZip XR is a straightforward, fast and easy to use compressing and decompressing utility, operating right on Palm OS device. It is small and elegant, yet a powerful application that uses only 73Kb of memory. FlyZip XR 2.5 is a highly anticipated replacement of award-winning FlyZip XR 2.1. FlyZip XR uses patent pending compression technology, which is optimized for handheld devices.
FlyZip XR 2.5 now offers ARM-native processing power for application ultra fast compression/decompression on Palm OS 5 devices. Thanks to the new compression libraries added to FlyZip XR 2.5, user can choose between operating modes optimized for compression speed or compressed application size. Using speed mode on Palm OS 5 device Tungsten T, the compression/decompression speed is close to 1Mbyte/sec for typical applications or even exceeds 1.7Mbyte/sec for selected applications. Now, the compression or decompression of 100Kb file takes only one tenth of second on Palm OS 5 device and 2-3 seconds on Palm OS 4 devices. The compression rate is increased in a new version for both, speed and size modes.
An advanced functionality of a memory card, using FlyZip XR 2.5, not only gives to Palm OS handheld user more space on the extension memory card, but also allows currently running applications fully function from the memory card unlike Palm OS built-in memory card support.
“Need more room on your Palm? Be sure to get this program! … I've had programs compress up to 80%,” said William Hungerford, writer specializing in Personal Technology at About.com and President of Executive Databases.
“This is the first time when we can clearly demonstrate the potential of our new data compression technology,” said Andris Grikis, CEO of Elegant Algorithms. “Thanks to extremely high speed of compression engine, many of the memory card operations can be done 2-3 times faster using FlyZip XR 2.5. In a nearest future, we aim to reach the effect of acceleration not only on Palm OS based devices, but also on other high speed storage and network devices.”
