(I meant for this to be a suggestion for the AnandTech main site but posted it in forum suggestions in error)
It would be nice to see StuffIt 11 .jpg compression/decompression results in the Media Encoding Performance section of your reviews. It take FOREVER to compress/deconpress .jpg files but it compresses them almost 30% with no picture quality loss so I've been converting my .zip'd jpgs to .stix format (we're talking hours here). Also, they claim StuffIt 11 .stix format is now optimized for dual core processors and just a couple days ago they released the mobile version of StuffIt Mobile for cell phones so it seems the .stix format may become popular. The compression/decompression really gives my CPU a workout and it would be great to see how different CPUs compare and if their claim to dual core optimization really makes a difference.
