Are you running PKZIP on the i?

Perhaps somebody has changed the default compression level? (I assume that
feature is available)

Otherwise, perhaps you are mistaken in your belief the files are the same?
Double check the DSPFD output for both.

Could be the sequence of the data or the width of the compression window.

Subject: Compression issue

I have two original files(PF's) with same size, same CCSID on the file,
the same record format names, the same data in them. When they put through
PKZIP produce compressed files of different sizes, does anyone know what
could be the reason?
one on the production system and the other on development box.

Thanks,
