lzma /solid

Hello,

I always compressed my NSIS installers via lzma. Some hours ago I tried lzma /solid and WOW the installer was 1,4MB instead of 2,0MB. But when I compress the 2,0MB-installer using 7Zip (best compression) it's 1,9 MB.

So are there any files missing in the 1,4MB-installer or is lzma solid just a great compressor?

Compressing an already compressed file is not going to be as good as compressing uncompressed files. You wouldn't expect Zipping a Zip file to make it any smaller. So no, of course no files are missing.
