If this option is set, Clonezilla Live continues cloning even if a read |

error occurs. If there is one, the disk image will be corrupted, but |

also attempts to repair it automatically. Enabling this option reduces the |

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. |

|
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. |
