The GNU Project has released version 1.14 of the gzip package, which includes the tools gzip, gunzip, zmore, and zcat for compressing and decompressing data using the LZ77 algorithm. In this release, decompression operations have been significantly accelerated. On x86_64 systems that support PCLMUL processor instructions, the performance gain reaches 40%, while on systems lacking PCLMUL support, it is up to 20%. <\/p>\n

The acceleration is achieved through the optimization of checksum (CRC) operations, which consumed about half of the processor time. The optimized CRC version has already been integrated into the gnulib library, which will lead to performance improvements in other GNU projects utilizing checksum functions. <\/p>\n

Compatibility-breaking changes have been made: the installation of the zmore utility has been stopped on platforms not using the 'more' utility; the processing of the GZIP environment variable (which sets default options) has been discontinued in situations where options '-1' (\u2014fast), '-2', \u2026 '-9' (\u2014best), '\u2014rsyncable', or '\u2014synchronous' are not explicitly specified. <\/p>\n

Additionally, it is worth noting: <\/p>\n
