Btw, pertaining to our last discussion: The compression ratios shown in the log are more than 6x multiple times.

What kind of storage device does the tar reside? As you've checked out pragzip, could you try to run `ninja benchmarkIORead && src/benchmarks/benchmarkIORead `? Also, I've created an AppImage that...

Short recap (for my future self): - Initial tests (`test.log`) copied a ~10 GB large file out of a .tar.gz - with indexed_gzip (-P should not matter): 175 MB/s -...

@Vadiml1024 I would be interested to see how ratarmount 0.14.0 performs for your test case. There are two commits probably affecting this: - 4a457a94faaa34922e8da20a3a983f248c468c96 This and others did update pragzip...

Tried it again and cannot reproduce it anymore: ``` python3 ratarmount.py 4GiB-base64.gz mounted Creating offset dictionary for 4GiB-base64.gz took 8.14s Writing out TAR index to 4GiB-base64.gz.index.sqlite took 0s and is...

One reason why `os.pread` is not always possible is the recursion. In those cases the reading has to be done on pure Python file-like objects for which pread cannot be...

@Vadiml1024 Could it be that you are running into [this issue](https://docs.python.org/3/library/zipfile.html) instead: > Decryption is extremely slow as it is implemented in native Python rather than C. With #98 also...

Ah nice. I didn't see it on PyPI. Cython as opposed to Python is also said to be faster: https://stackoverflow.com/a/72513075/2191065 And there is this: https://github.com/TkTech/fasterzip But it seems like it...

@BingoKingo What part of git should ratarmount support? [git-archive](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-archive) creates .tar.gz or zip archives, so that is already supported. Git [packfiles](https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Internals-Packfiles)? Not sure what the use case for that would...
