Hi Marc,
I took a look at the man page today seeing how I would alter it, and
it seems I missed the place where it does talk about memory usage
during our initial conversation:
-0..9 Set the compression level from 0 to 9. The default is to use
level 9, which is the slowest but gives the best compression
rate. The compression level is also strongly related to how
much memory rzip uses, so if you are running rzip on a machine
with limited amounts of memory then you will probably want to
choose a level less than 9.
Do you feel like that should be expanded on? I'm leaning towards 'no'
and beating myself over the head for not RTFM'ing close enough :)
