So,
Is the only reason the 'case in file -bizL' block is still there is because no
one has written a patch for it?
Because now you've got your performance sorted out.
No... we would still need "file -bizL" to identify the non-tar
compressed files and extract them. Given these are about the same speed
(time difference is a much smaller percentage on my machine), we need to
guess which is more regularly used as a source; compressed non-tar
files or files bsdtar can extract that do not currently get extracted.
So I see any further change giving little gain.
