.SH DESCRIPTION
Lunzip is a decompressor for the lzip format. It is written in C and its
small size makes it well suited for embedded devices or software
installers that need to decompress files but do not need compression

smaller the buffer size used in relation to the dictionary size, the
more accesses to disk are needed and the slower the decompression is.
This 'low memory' mode only works when decompressing to a regular file
and is intended for systems without enough memory (RAM + swap) to keep
the whole dictionary at once.
