I'm not sure what you're talking about here, but what it is asking you
for is ESTIMATED COMPRESSION, not how much it should compress.  The
file will only compress as much as it will compress, and that's all
there is to it.  What do you think they do, simply magically throw
away 2/3 of the data if you tell them you want 3:1 compression, or
what? 

Since I don't see what your problem is, I'm not sure what you're
looking for in the way of a solution.  Why do you say "the compression
of stacker doesn't work"?  

Do you know what you're doing?
