TIFF compression

Please, how come saving a TIFF file in Photoshop with zip compression, generates a smaller file than any other image viewers, including Xnview? The difference is sometimes more than 30%. Is there an internal parameter for the amount of compression?

I tried GIMP. It does even compress a little more! Unfortunately Xnview generates a file sometimes much bigger using the same type of compression :(

exactly the same 24bit picture. I can send you one if you want, and then export it with xnview.
