pigz speedsters,

pigz version 2.8 has been released. You can download it from:

 https://zlib.net/pigz/

The key updates are:

- Fixed a version bug when compiling with the just-released zlib 1.3
- Will save a modification time only for regular files (just like gzip since 1.10)
- Will write all available uncompressed data on an error, for partial data recovery

If you like, you can see all the details at https://github.com/madler/pigz/commits/master .
