Description

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

Lzip is a lossless data compressor based on the LZMA algorithm, with
very safe integrity checking and a user interface similar to the one of
gzip or bzip2. Lzip decompresses almost as fast as gzip and compresses
better than bzip2, which makes it well suited for software distribution
and data archiving.
