All:

Is there any interest in integrating Lzip compression support into
dump/restore? Does this compression method make sense to integrate?

http://www.nongnu.org/lzip/lzip.html

This compression method is specifically targeted toward data archiving,
so my assumption is that it would also make sense integrate with dump.

If this makes sense, should Lzip (based on LZMA) replace the LZO
compression integration? They are similar.

If there is interest, I would be willing to provide the patch.

Thanks,
