How long could it take to ZIP my wwwroot with around 2.74 GB of files and folders? [closed]

"How long does it take to Zip a folder
of this size (appx. 100,000 files)?

how long is a piece of string? :)

that depends on the specifications of the computer and the type of data.

is it safe to maintain Zip archives
this way?

perfectly safe, ZIP archives don't deteriorate :)

in fact, many backup programs use ZIP compression."

"exactly what I was saying to you ...

I use :

zip (low compression) for low importance stuff and for sending to newbies (better than no compression)

rar (middle compression) for important stuff in a direct network or straigt on a media support ... (network, media supports)

7z (high compression) when I want it highly compressed to put online and I have time to wait to upload faster with less bandwith ... (internet mostly)"

"Running Windows 7's default Zip capability was no use (it ran into problems over unknown chartacters in some files) as described above.

I Rar-ed the file using WinRar and it took around 40 minutes for the entire file to be created without errors. Thanks and this seems to be a quick way of making backups.

Copying that many files from one drive to another (without compression) is a pain. Thanks!"
