GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 771632
New build-in compress does not use multi cores
Last modified: 2021-06-14 15:17:52 UTC
Hello. Using nautilus 3.21.91.1-1 on debian stretch. The new build in .7z compression does not use multicore on my machine, and therefore is much less efficient than file roller.
Nautilus uses libarchive, please report to https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive
I asked libarchive developers. https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive/issues/784#issuecomment-248024287 It is supposed to be enabled by Nautilus. Maybe include an checkbox or make some hadware check to make sure there is enough resources.
thanks for reporting back, moving to autoar then.

The default value in gnome-autoar should be 'disabled'.
Let's close this in favor of https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-autoar/-/issues/29.
