Plzip is a parallel version of the lzip data compressor. 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. Currently only compression is performed in
parallel. Parallel decompression is planned to be implemented later.
