    Hello out there!

    Thanks a lot for all the replies to my posting. There were a lot of useful
    suggestions out there. The one that I picked (i.e. the easiest one... ;) )
    is using the latest version of gzip (version 1.3.5). The one that comes with
    HP-UX 11i by default seems to be 1.2.4 and this version can't handle files >
    2 GB.

    The results are as follows:

    export file size: 18.9 GB

    bzip2: duration 5 hours, resulting file size: 1.2 GB

    new gzip: duration 45 minutes, file size: 2.1 GB

    The compressions rate is perfectly acceptable for us and the compression
    time is much less.

    Thanks again for all your replies!

    Regards,
    Helmut
