Sure, thank you. I think I see the problem now. You are decompressing 
very compressible files (99.99% saved) to stdout, and this allows *every 
thread* of plzip to produce output faster than it is consumed.

The current method of limiting memory usage does not cover this case. I 
am working on a new method and will release e new version in a few days. 
Please, stay tuned.


Best regards,
Antonio.
