Plzip is a massively parallel (multi-threaded), lossless data compressor
based on the lzlib compression library, with a user interface similar to
the one of lzip, bzip2 or gzip.
Plzip can compress/decompress large files on multiprocessor machines
much faster than lzip, at the cost of a slightly reduced compression
ratio. Note that the number of usable threads is limited by file size,
so on files larger than a few GB plzip can use hundreds of processors,
but on files of only a few MB plzip is no faster than lzip.
Plzip uses the lzip file format; the files produced by plzip are fully
compatible with lzip-1.4 or newer, and can be rescued with lziprecover.
