Well, I gave it a try.  Nothing like the old experimental approach.  I
chose the technote #176 file, since it was nice and big.  The original
posting contained four files, put together with packit.  Here are the
numbers.

				orig file	.hqx		.hqx.Z
Original posting (packited)	154194		203165		92921
Stuffit of posting		66066		90012		81801

Note that the .hqx of the stuffit version is shorter than the
compressed .hqx of the original!  You don't gain much by compressing
the .hqx of the stuffit file, though.

(Stuffit used LZW compression throughout.)
