It is always the same! Compression is not a game of chance! When you compress a file and you later compress the original file again with the same settings, it will be exactly the same, bit by bit. Compressing is pure maths, there is no "lucky" factor in it...
Sorry. It was like that in my experience, but obviously, I had not kept all the settings the same.

it has way better compression compared to winrar, i use it all the time, comparing one 5 mb file i was able to achieve a compressioin of 2mb in winace, compared to 3.5mb in winrar
No compression method will be
always better than others.
