File type : Microsoft Office 97 DLL (MSO97.DLL).
# of files to compress in this test : 1
Total File Size (bytes) : 3,782,416
Conclusion: Results are identical to EXE-file compression, which is quite
logical as a DLL (Dynamic Link Library) is nothing more then an executable in
disguise. As with EXE-compression, most top programs in this test are specifically
optimised for executable compression (e.g. changing relative call/jmp addresses
to absolute). This explains the big difference between the top and the programs
just behind them. WinRK, Durilca and PAQ8 are the programs to choose when you
want to compress executables/DLL's.
