+compressed file format.  lbzip2 can process standard bz2 files in parallel.
+It uses POSIX threading model (pthreads), which allows it to take full
+advantage of 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.")
