TXZ
TXZ — XZ-compressed TAR Archive
documentTXZ (also .tar.xz) is a TAR archive compressed with the XZ algorithm, which is based on LZMA2. It provides the highest compression ratios of the common tar formats, making it the preferred choice for official Linux distribution packages (Arch, Fedora, Gentoo). The trade-off is slower compression speed versus gzip or bzip2.

✓Common use cases
- ›Official Linux distribution package format (e.g., Arch Linux)
- ›Maximum compression of large software releases
- ›Distributing firmware and embedded system images
- ›Archiving large datasets for long-term storage
- ›Reducing bandwidth costs for high-traffic downloads
★Advantages
- ›Best compression ratio of all common TAR variants
- ›Fast decompression despite high compression
- ›Multi-threaded compression support
- ›Used by major Linux distributions as default format
- ›Excellent for bandwidth-constrained distribution
⚙Technical details
TAR stream compressed with XZ (LZMA2 algorithm); 15-25% better compression than bzip2 but 5-10x slower to compress; very fast decompression; extensions: .txz or .tar.xz; supports multi-threading with pixz or xz --threads.
