    lol, this feels like the old trick of devs putting sleeps in their code so they can add a performance boost later ;) I think you may a ruined the surprise! Seriously I just used the built in compression from Vista to try to this out and saw my DeepEarth XAB go from 53KB to 42KB. Why did they use such a bad compression?

    SoulSolutions, I like conspiracy theories as much as the next person, but I'm sure nobody deliberately used suboptimal compression. :) Rather, I imagine that the most convenient managed compression code was used because it was good enough for everyone's purpose during the early stages of development and because improving/replacing it later would be an easy, low-risk change. As this post demonstrates, in fact! I think the official XAP compression story will improve soon - and until then, I hope XapReZip can help!

    Hi there, You have provided a great piece of stuff, thanks for sharing with us. I have found a bug in it. The zipping function does not include the "ServiceReferences.ClientConfig" service configuration file even though it is included in the original xap file. I'll appreciate if you can provide the solution. Thanks

    Got the answer, the "ServiceReferences.ClientConfig" needs to be copied to output directory. You already mentioned in your text that all the files should be in the output directory. Sorry

    Supal, I suspect that maybe the CMD file or ZIP.exe don't exist where it's expecting them to. But the good news is that the default XAP compression with the Silverlight 4 Tools is better than it used to be - and good enough that XapReZip shouldn't really be necessary any more! :)
