pigz 2.0 (19 Oct 2008) by Mark Adler

pigz, which stands for Parallel Implementation of GZip, is a fully functional
replacement for gzip that exploits multiple processors and multiple cores to
the hilt when compressing data.

pigz was written by Mark Adler, and uses the zlib and pthread libraries.

This version of pigz is written to be portable across Unix-style operating
systems that provide the zlib and pthread libraries. Type "make" in this
directory to build the "pigz" executable. You can then install the
executable wherever you like in your path (e.g. /usr/local/bin/). Type
"pigz" to see the command help and all of the command options.

The latest version of pigz can be found at http://zlib.net/pigz/ . Questions, comments, bug reports, fixes, etc. can be emailed to Mark at his address in the license below.
