I need to #compress a lot of #logfile's, so, again, tested #pbzip2 #lbzip2 #lzip #xz #pixz #pigz and #zstd.
The current winner for time/size race was "lzip -7" (which is same as plzip -7, uses all threads available). #Compression rate slightly below pixz but it's hugely faster (also has better fileformat 😉).
May have been some zstd only if it would be simple to figure out the right combo of 22 options.
