Hello Tino,

Why is lzip -1 so much slower than for example xz -1?
Because lzip was designed to complement gzip and bzip2, not to replace
them. See here[1] what I mean.

"Here are some tests showing how well lzip complements gzip and bzip2.
As you can see, compressed sizes for each file decrease almost
monotonically from top (gzip -1) to bottom (lzip -9)."
Regards,
Antonio.
