Name        : pixz
Product     : Fedora 23
Version     : 1.0.4
Release     : 1.fc23
URL         : https://github.com/vasi/pixz/
Summary     : Parallel indexed xz compressor
Description :
Pixz (pronounced pixie) is a parallel, indexing version of xz.

** pixz vs xz

The existing XZ Utils provide great compression in the .xz file format, but
they produce just one big block of compressed data. Pixz instead produces a
collection of smaller blocks which makes random access to the original data
possible. This is especially useful for large tarballs.

** Differences to xz

* Automatically indexes tarballs during compression.
* Supports parallel decompression, which xz does not.
* Defaults to using all available CPU cores, while xz defaults to using
only one core.
* Provides -i and -o command line options to specify input and output file.
