[Request]: Slow export of bottles, maybe use multi threaded compressor?

Tell us the problem or your need

Last time I tried to export a bottle it took about 10 minutes for a 6.5GB I think bottle, the export only used one thread to create the tar.gz file maybe it would be better to use pigz? it can use many threads to compress, my system specs are below

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3800X 8c16t 3.9 - 4.5Ghz Memory: 48GB Home Drive: PCIe 3.0 4x NVME SSD

Describe the solution you'd like

Some kind of multi threaded compress/decompressor like pigz or p7zip

Other solutions?

how about tar with zstd?

yeah that sounds ok :) zstd as far as I know can be threaded to use more cpu cores
