pigz
A parallel implementation of gzip for multi-processor machines
pigz
Description
pigz, which stands for Parallel Implementation of GZip, is a fully functional replacement for gzip that exploits multiple processors and multiple cores to the hilt when compressing data.
pigz was written by Mark Adler, and uses the zlib and pthread libraries.
This version of pigz is written to be portable across Unix-style operating systems that provide the zlib and pthread libraries.
Install
Channel stable v2.8-1
This app is curated in HaikuPorts. Install it from there, it is already available in HaikuDepot.
pkgman install pigz
Careful: the file comes from HaikuPorts' own server, but installing it by hand is not the way in. It is pkgman that resolves the dependencies an .hpkg does not carry with it, and a package installed on its own may simply not run. Use the pkgman command above, unless you know exactly why you want the file.
