Description
Plzip is a parallel version of the lzip data compressor. Currently only
Plzip is a massively parallel (multithreaded) data compressor compatible
with the lzip file format. The files produced by plzip are fully
compatible with lzip-1.4 or newer. Plzip is intended for faster
compression/decompression of big files on multiprocessor machines. On
files big enough, plzip can use hundreds of processors. Currently only
compression is performed in parallel. Parallel decompression is planned
to be implemented later.
