Description
bzip2 is a free, multi-threaded compression utility with support for bzip2 compressed file format.
lbzip2 can process standard bz2 files in parallel. It uses POSIX threading model (pthreads), which allows it to take full advantage of the symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) systems. It has been proven to scale linearly, even to over one hundred processor cores.
lbzip2 is fully compatible with bzip2 -- both at file format and command line level. Files created by lbzip2 can be decompressed by all versions of bzip2 and other software supporting bz2 format. lbzip2 can decompress any bz2 files in parallel. All bzip2 command-line options are also accepted by lbzip2. This makes lbzip2 a drop-in replacement for bzip2.
