Hello Tomasz,

Sounds reasonable, please see git master for the class 
DefaultBackingStoreSupplier (or a SNAPSHOT build in the Apache SNAPSHOT Maven 
repository: 
https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/snapshots/org/apache/commons/commons-compress/1.23-SNAPSHOT/),
 and instead of:

final ParallelScatterZipCreator zipCreator = new ParallelScatterZipCreator();

Use:
        final Path dir = Paths.get("target/custom-temp-dir");
        Files.createDirectories(dir);
        final ParallelScatterZipCreator zipCreator = new 
ParallelScatterZipCreator(
                
Executors.newFixedThreadPool(Runtime.getRuntime().availableProcessors()),
                new DefaultBackingStoreSupplier(dir));

FWIW, I do not think we should add new constructors.

Gary
