Size difference between universal and non-universal self-extracting ZIP files

[pivic]

Thanks a million for the new self-extracting ZIP files feature!

The new features page states that non-universal files are about 1% smaller than universal files. However, the examples included differ around 33% in size.

Is the example just a general estimation on size difference or is something wrong?

Actually, the examples show the difference between a (universal) self-extracting page and a classic HTML file. Self-extracting files should indeed be at least 30% smaller than HTML files.
