Also use pigz instead of gzip so it can use multiple threads on decoding (although you're probably Limited by sending bandwidth)

- jwilk 8y agopigz doesn't help much with decompression: https://github.com/madler/pigz/issues/36#issuecomment-249041503 https://github.com/madler/pigz/issues/36#issuecomment-249041... Decompression can’t be parallelized, at least not without specially prepared deflate streams for that purpose. As a result, pigz uses a single thread (the main thread) for decompression, but will create three other threads for reading, writing, and check calculation, which can speed up decompression under some circumstances.
