[opensuse-buildservice] Re: [PATCH] use pigz with kiwi if it is available in buildroot

Any comments? On Tue, Jul 26, 2011 at 5:32 PM, Dinar Valeev wrote:

Attached patch defines kiwi option --gzip-cmd to pigz if package available in buildroot. Otherwise gzip will be used (by default).

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.

My experience with pigz is ~6Min (gzip) vs ~2Min with pigz.

Comments are welcome.
