| h English (en) | === How to compress and uncompress tar files === <code>tar</code> can compress an archive file at the same time it creates it. There are a number of compression methods to choose from. We recommend either '''<code>xz</code>''' or '''<code>gzip</code>''', which can be used like so: {{Commands|tar --create --xz --file project1.tar.xz project1 |tar --extract --xz --file project1.tar.xz |tar --create --gzip --file project1.tar.gz project1 |tar --extract --gzip --file project1.tar.gz}} Typically, <code>--xz</code> will produce a smaller compressed file (a "better compression ratio") but takes longer and uses more RAM while working [http://catchchallenger.first-world.info/wiki/Quick_Benchmark:_Gzip_vs_Bzip2_vs_LZMA_vs_XZ_vs_LZ4_vs_LZO]. <code>--gzip</code> does not typically compress as small, but may be used if you encounter difficulties due to insufficient memory or excessive run time during <code>tar --create</code>. |
