András,
Currently I am using Ionic.zip (very old 1.9.1.8) in a production environment and have no problems at all. Having read your articles on the various zip capabilities now available in .Net made me wonder if I should replace that old unsupported Ionic.zip module with the official .Net one. Have you, by any chance, done any performance analysis of the .Net zip capabilities?
Best regards,
Lajos Szőke
