Intel's Teraflops Research Chip and pigz parallel implementation ?

[apollo]

hello, I'm new here I was wondering what would be the results if parallel implementation of pigz be used on Intel's Teraflops Research Chip which has 80 cores, what would the results be ? speaking in hypothetically ?

does having large amount of cores speed of compression decompression ? I'm leaning mainly towards multimedia files, videos and mp3s nothing else

1. compression should scale well as far as each core has enough local memory (~512kb) and total RAM throughput is enough to handle 2gb/s compression speed
2. pigz decompression is single-threaded
3. MM files cannot be further compressed anyway

Portability improvements
Produce Zip64 format when needed for --zip (>= 4 GiB)
Make -no-name compatible with gzip, add --time option
Add -m as a short option for --no-time
Check run-time zlib version to handle weak linking
Fix a concurrent read bug in --list operation
Process options first, for gzip compatibility
Add --synchronous (-Y) option to force device write
Disallow an empty suffix (e.g. --suffix '')
Return an exit code of 1 if any issues are encountered
Fix sign error in compression reduction percentage
