Hi Juan,

Can you please explain why you prefer this one? That is, instead of this:

    vv52_new.log.lz: 15.329:1,  6.52% ratio, 93.48% saved. ok

I prefer the original (bits/byte) but if he is going to change the output, I prefer only one percentage.


In my humble opinion, I don't really see the advantage in any way whatsoever in choosing a decimal over a percentage in this case, especially considering the fact that a percentage is already shown for another part of the overall value.

Best regards,

Timothy Beryl Grahek
