Clzip is a C language version of lzip, fully compatible with lzip-1.4 or
newer. As clzip is written in C, it may be easier to integrate in
applications like package managers, embedded devices, or systems lacking
a C++ compiler.

Lzip is a lossless data compressor with a user interface similar to the
one of gzip or bzip2. Lzip can compress about as fast as gzip (lzip -0),
or compress most files more than bzip2 (lzip -9). Decompression speed is
intermediate between gzip and bzip2. Lzip is better than gzip and bzip2
from a data recovery perspective.

Clzip currently implements two variants of the LZMA algorithm; fast
(used by option '-0') and normal (used by all other compression levels).

I found clzip to be fractionally faster than lzip.

Tested under a shell stack of 2000000 only.
