Roberto,
not sure if I'm right here but when flag "Compress all files" is on I think also base file list is compressed while they are already compressed by UPX.
I'm talking about all exe and dll: thinBasic.exe, thinBasicc.exe, thinCore.dll, thinVL.dll, ....
All those files are already natively compressed so compressing them save just few bytes while slow down a bit startup operations when bundled exe is executed.
So, in general, only user files should be compressed.
Just an idea
Ciao

Eros,
a ThinBasic base file are natively compressed with UPX, so whichever is the status of Compress all files they aren't compressed again.
I think that the startup overloading while Compress all files is on it's due to the payload of loading the ZLIB library.
