First, thank you for your work. Really cool project.
You are welcome.
When I try to use plzip or tarlz (-vvv), it shows just the files that are being
compressed. And when is done, shows the final status. But nothing else in the
middle.
Also noticed that in multithread is not using all CPUs, but not sure if is
normal or not...
Tarlz does not show the compression progress, as documented in
http://www.nongnu.org/lzip/manual/tarlz_manual.html#Invoking-tarlz
-v
--verbose
Verbosely list files processed.
Plzip only shows the compression progress for multimember files, as
documented in http://www.nongnu.org/lzip/manual/plzip_manual.html#Invoking-plzip
"Two or more '-v' options show the progress of (de)compression, except for
single-member files."
(See also http://www.nongnu.org/lzip/manual/plzip_manual.html#Program-design).
Most probably you tried files too small for the compression level selected.
See http://www.nongnu.org/lzip/manual/plzip_manual.html#Minimum-file-sizes
Best regards,
Antonio.
