The pbzip2 program is a parallel version of bzip2 for use on shared
|
||
|
|
memory machines. It provides near-linear speedup when used on true
|
||
|
|
multi-processor machines and 5-10% speedup on Hyperthreaded machines.
|
||
|
|
The output is fully compatible with the regular bzip2 data so any
|
||
|
|
files created with pbzip2 can be uncompressed by bzip2 and vice-versa.
