Are *.gz files really compressed into smaller sizes? Because when I open a gzipped file using WinZip, the compression ratio always reads 0%, and after extracting the conctents of a gzipped file and adding up the file sizes, it totals the size of the *.gz file. So where's the compression? Also, which one can give the maximum compression, gzip or bzip?

p.s:- is it my imagination, or are duels getting rather prolix?
