Could someone shed a little light on the use of zoo vs. arc. I used 
zoo on the new programs yesterday. Then for the fun of it I tried zoo
and pkarc to compress and extract the same files. Zoo was noticeable
slower and the file size difference was only a few percent smaller.
What is it's advantage ?
