I have just tested with standard params (no parameters were given). Will try with different parameters instead.

plz4 and these other codecs were roughly the same as pzlib v2, full of bugs. even pzlib in 0.0.19.8 is buggy, hence the 0.0.19.8 version, versions before version 1, it was an alpha release, version one was planned where everything would have been refined.

The encoder of plz4 was updated in May 2017 I think, so you can see, there was inactivity in that codec because I was so obsessed with adding a lot of other codecs, plzo, pzstd and etc.

pzlib, plz4.... were being updated so there really isn't anything important in it.

I have already tried to use pzlib and ztool (lz4) and did not have a satisfactory result.

that is because it is using Divinity Engine wich i personally do not know how to compress

22gbs down to 13.8gb (not good compression ratio)
FGs ratio is 27 to 13gb

u can achieve better with lolz (use multithreading) with mtt0

or u can get better decompression speed with same ratio using lzma2

fitgirl also uses many hidden tools not all of us know of and lolz does not work too well for me in fact those lzma settings compress higher for me than lolz does
