It turns out the one I did not test, was actually the best:

What's with all these odd formats, and where is .zip? :)
Somehow... have you tried lrzip?
$ apt-cache search lrzip

Furthermore, if the files in the .tar archive were actually sorted..
(Obviously we shall pick .7z)


Ah, how did I miss zip? :)
