 Found another recently, apack, and it seems to be beating the
 others regularly.  Look at this:
  4help.exe  59,712  original       a.exe  33,495  ainexe
  t.exe      34,576  tinyprog       m.exe  33,470  megalite
  l.exe      34,148  lzexe          x.exe  33,055  xpack
  i.exe      34,049  elite          g.exe  32,588  lglz
  d.exe      33,676  diet           u.exe  31,917  ucexe
  p.exe      33,550  pklite         k.exe  30,571  apack

 Tsk, tsk.  Too timid by far.  You should *thrill* to the challenge
 of squeezing a few more bytes out of a file.  Only 432,971 total:
 ainexe.exe    18,300    lglz.exe      25,568    tinyprog.exe  46,112
 apack.exe     74,998    lzexe.exe     12,948    ucexe.exe     26,317
 comtoexe.exe   4,957    lzx.exe       18,746    unp.exe       12,743
 diet.exe      26,370    megalite.exe  29,989    upackexe.exe   6,873
 elite.exe     22,872    pklite.exe    53,857    xpack.com     52,321
 Compress a few big files and you make up for it in minutes.
