I don't know that much about compression, but I wonder if a threadsafe compression module would enable parallel forms of compression? If yes, then multithreaded might be a big benefit, in light of multicore taking off. EG: http://www.compression.ca/pbzip2/ It might be worthwhile to check with the authors (of bzip2 and pyliblzma modules) about why they went with thread safety. |
