About the XZ format

XZ — XZ Compressed File

XZ is a single-file compression format using the LZMA2 algorithm, which provides some of the best compression ratios available for general-purpose single-file compression. It is the default format for many Linux distribution packages and kernel releases. While compression is slow, decompression is surprisingly fast, making it ideal for distributable archives.

Common uses

Linux kernel and software release compression
Arch Linux package format (.pkg.tar.xz)
Maximum compression of source code and text
Firmware and embedded image distribution
