What releases of OS/400 and I5/OS does it support?

Users have reported compression of 2.8 to 1, up to 22.7 to 1, on different libraries, with about 8 to 1 on application data. Compiled programs compress the least, scripts and source have the highest compression.

We use the compression function built into OS/400.. Part of the reason for our high compression is that we compress larger blocks of data at once than most tape drives.
