https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1260911 Bug ID: 1260911 Summary: Review Request: pixz - Parallel indexed xz compressor Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Component: Package Review Severity: medium Priority: medium Assignee: nobody@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Reporter: i@xxxxxxxx QA Contact: extras-qa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx CC: package-review@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Spec URL: http://cicku.me/pixz.spec SRPM URL: http://cicku.me/pixz-1.0.3-1.fc24.src.rpm Description: Pixz (pronounced pixie) is a parallel, indexing version of xz. ** pixz vs xz The existing XZ Utils provide great compression in the .xz file format, but they produce just one big block of compressed data. Pixz instead produces a collection of smaller blocks which makes random access to the original data possible. This is especially useful for large tarballs. ** Differences to xz * Automatically indexes tarballs during compression. * Supports parallel decompression, which xz does not. * Defaults to using all available CPU cores, while xz defaults to using only one core. * Provides -i and -o command line options to specify input and output file.
