retitle 292541 ITP: pbzip2 -- Parallel bzip2 implementation
thanks.
Package name: pbzip2
Version: 0.9
Upstream Author: Jeff Gilchrist <pbzip2@compression.ca>
URL: http://compression.ca/pbzip2/
License: BSD-style license, same as bzip2
Description: parallel bzip2 implementation
~ pbzip2 is a parallel implementation of the bzip2 block-sorting file
~ compressor that uses pthreads and achieves near-linear speedup on SMP
~ machines. The output of this version is fully compatible with bzip2
~ v1.0.2 (ie: anything compressed with pbzip2 can be decompressed with
~ bzip2). However, only files compressed with pbzip2 can be decompressed
~ in parallel.
