+The above LZX data are using explicitly specified maximum compression
+('--compress=maximum') as of wimlib v1.5.3. If `wimlib-imagex capture' or
+`wimlib-imagex capture' is instead run with no '--compress' argument, then a
+faster LZX compressor is used; it will produce results in between those given
+for XPRESS and LZX above.
+
+Note: if the absolute maximum (but still compatible) compression ratio is
+desired, `wimlib-imagex optimize WIMFILE --recompress --compress-slow' on one of
+the above LZX-compressed WIMs produces a WIM of 187,089,943 bytes in about 400
+seconds.
