It uses POSIX threading +model (pthreads), which allows it to take full advantage of the symmetric +multiprocessing (SMP) systems. It has been proven to scale linearly, even +to over one hundred processor cores. + +lbzip2 is fully compatible with bzip2 -- both at file format and command +line level. Files created by lbzip2 can be decompressed by all versions +of bzip2 and other software supporting bz2 format. lbzip2 can decompress +any bz2 files in parallel. All bzip2 command-line options are also +accepted by lbzip2. This makes lbzip2 a drop-in replacement for bzip2. + +WWW: http://lbzip2.org/
