I tried to test how much peak memory 'xz' uses to decompress the autoconf tarball but was (apparently) defeated by the strange way that 'xz' is linked. I will try again with a different tool this weekend.
Ok, I have now measured how much memory the 'xz' I have here requires under Linux to decompress the autoconf beta tarball. It requires 67,184,168 bytes of heap memory. This seems to match the xz documentation for the -9 compression level.
