Both formats, briefly
RARIN
RAR is a closed format from the makers of WinRAR, known for splitting one large archive into numbered parts and for recovery data that can survive minor damage. Writing RAR files needs licensed software, though reading them is common. Upload a RAR here when somebody sent you one and you would rather keep working in an open format.
TAR.XZOUT
TAR.XZ runs LZMA2 compression over a TAR bundle and usually ends up the smallest of the common Unix archive types. Building one asks for more processor time and memory than gzip does. It fits large downloads well, because you pay that cost once and everyone who fetches the file saves bandwidth.
