These results are interesting to note the compression of lrzip by default is
about the same as 7z, but it's significantly faster thanks to its heavily
multithreaded nature. Decompression is only slightly slower because of the 2
stages in decompression. Zpaq offers by far the best compression but at the cost
multithreaded nature. Zpaq offers by far the best compression but at the cost
of extra time. However with the heavily threaded nature of lrzip, it's not a lot
longer given how much better its compression is. It's actually faster than xz
on compression on a quad core machine.

happy as lzma gives good results. :D
