lrztar

lrztar is a command line tool used for compressing and transferring large files or directories over a network. It utilizes the Lrz compression algorithm, which provides high-speed, low-latency compression. The tool is designed to work efficiently with high-speed networks and is optimized for large file transfers. It uses parallel compression to maximize throughput and works well with multi-core processors. lrztar automatically splits files into smaller chunks, compresses them, and transfers them in parallel, resulting in faster transfers compared to traditional tools like tar and gzip. Moreover, it supports resumable transfers, allowing the transfer process to be paused and resumed later without starting from scratch. lrztar also includes features like encryption and checksum verification for secure and reliable file transfers.
