It would be really interesting to see comparisons of all these implementations. I am hoping that as all are opensource, the best ideas can probably be mixed up to get an even better implementation.

However using pbzip2 to decompress pbzip2 compressed files is much much faster. pbzip2 was the fastest compared to bzip2smp and smpbzip2 - but sadly does not support reading from streams or sockets. pbzip2 creates _slightly_ larger files then the others. bunzip2 can decompress files written by pbzip2 and vice-versa.
