BZ2
BZ2 — Bzip2 Compressed File
documentBZ2 is a single-file compression format using the bzip2 algorithm (Burrows-Wheeler transform + Huffman coding). It consistently achieves 10-15% better compression ratios than gzip for text and source code, making it preferred for bandwidth-sensitive distributions. Like gzip, it compresses only a single file — directories must be bundled with TAR first.

⚙Technical details
Uses Burrows-Wheeler block-sorting transform followed by Huffman coding; block size selectable (100KB-900KB); CRC-32 per block for error detection; error-recoverable (can decompress from mid-stream if block headers intact).
