PECompact is an advanced Windows executable
compressor. Executable packers compress
executable modules (EXE, DLL, etc..) so
that their physical size is considerably
smaller. At runtime, compressed modules are
rapidly decompressed and reconstructed in
memory. Used on Google Desktop, DivX Player
6.0, and hundreds of other popular software
products, PECompact has real-world exposure
and testing beyond competing products. With
PECompact, you can rest assured your
compressed software will be trouble free.
PECompact performs better than other
industry competitors in both compression
ratio and decompression speed, but most
importantly it is commercial ready software
that is constantly updated and maintained.
The decompression algorithms used by
PECompact are optimized for maximum
decompression speed. This results in the
load time of compressed modules often being
improved since fewer bytes must be read
from the storage medium. Additionally, the
compression ratio of PECompact is better
than any general purpose compression
software like ZIP, RAR, or 7-ZIP. This is
because PECompact is optimized for a
specific type of file format: executables.
The compression ratio typically ranges from
70% to 80%, but varies depending on the
specific module.
