Following script was used to make the plots. They where run on a mounted tmpfs dir:
#!/bin/bash
rm -f *.compress *.decompress *.factor
for testnum in $(seq 0 500 10000); do
lorem -p $testnum > data
for archiver in bzip2 lzma xz gzip lzip lzop lrzip; do
case $archiver in
bzip2)
suffix=bz2;;
lzma)
suffix=lzma;;
xz)
suffix=xz;;
gzip)
suffix=gz;;
lzip)
suffix=lz;;
lzop)
suffix=lzo;;
lrzip)
suffix=lrz;;

s1=$(stat -c %s current-$testnum)
c=$(date +%s%N)
$archiver current-$testnum

total=$(echo $d-$c | bc)
echo "$testnum $total" >> $archiver.compress
s2=$(stat -c %s current-$testnum.$suffix)
