I noticed you set the compression options for xz to -9. I'm not sure this is a good idea, with -9 xz will use 674MB of memory - even for files that are smaller than that (a 100MB file used 674MB, and a 3.3MB file used 139MB, but it probably varies depending on content).

I think you should not set any number, and let xz decide on the default (which is currently -6, which has a max of 94MB).

Is it realistic to take another option (1-9) to pass to the compressor if people want to change it?

BTW thanks for implementing this so fast!
