As far as getting maximum compression from lzip, `lzip -9 -s 512Mi`
is usually the preferred invocation. I think the default dictionary
size at -9 is 64MiB, but that's not that relevant I guess, unless
we are comparing different methods and trying to see about what
ratios different algorithms get at similar memory usage.
