Compression software with slow rates, and very high compression

I have a lot of data that I don't have to 'get at right away', and I was wondering if there was any compression software I could use that could compress it down to a smaller size than I'm currently getting with 7zip. Compressing a gig of data takes ~10 minutes (optimizing for file size), and much less to decompress. Assuming I could spend hours on compression+extraction, would there be any way to get the compressed files even smaller?


So far, I've yet to see any GPU assisted compression programs, has anyone seen anything floating around?
