1405  method is very slow compared even to bzip2, which isn't fast method either.  lzma compression method is very slow compared even to bzip2, which isn't
1406    fast method either.
1407    
1408    Lzma method is becoming obsolete, and both xz and lzip are attempting to
1409    become its successor. They are a bit less powerful compression methods than
1410    lzma, but much faster. The differences between xz and lzip are virtually
1411    non-existent.
1412    
1413    If you don't use the i486 version of Clonezilla-SysRescCD and your
1414    processor contains multiple cores and/or supports Hyper-Threading, parallel
1415    gzip, bzip2, xz and lzip compression methods are also available. Parallel
1416    compression means that each processor core compresses a different part of the
1417    image at a time. Without parallel compression one core compresses everything.
1418    
1419    The speed impact caused by parallel compression depends on the number
1420    of processor cores available. In addition, Hyper-Threading increases the
1421    speed by about 30 % if parallel compression is used. For example, if your
1422    processor contains four cores and supports Hyper-Threading, speed with
1423    parallel compression is nearly 5,2 times as high as without. However,
1424    parallel compression is currently an experimental feature.

1436    
1437    Clonezilla Live warns that it is no longer safe to disable splitting because
1438    value 0 can confuse init. I (the contributor) don't know what the warning
1439    exactly means and haven't been able to reproduce the problem. Anyway,
1440    entering a very big value, for example 999999999999, is a safe way to keep
