By default tarlz creates, lists and extracts archives in a -simplified posix pax format compressed with lzip on a per file basis. Each -tar member is compressed in its own lzip member, as well as the end\-of\-file -blocks. This method adds an indexed lzip layer on top of the tar archive, -making it possible to decode the archive safely in parallel. The resulting -multimember tar.lz archive is fully backward compatible with standard tar -tools like GNU tar, which treat it like any other tar.lz archive. Tarlz can -append files to the end of such compressed archives. +Tarlz is a massively parallel (multi\-threaded) combined implementation of +the tar archiver and the lzip compressor.
