HISTORY of the 7-Zip\r
--------------------\r
\r
+17.01 beta 2017-08-28\r
+-------------------------\r
+- Minor speed optimization for LZMA2 (xz and 7z) multi-threading compression.\r
+ 7-Zip now uses additional memory buffers for multi-block LZMA2 compression.\r
+ CPU utilization was slightly improved.\r
+- 7-zip now creates multi-block xz archives by default. Block size can be \r
+ specified with -ms[Size]{m|g} switch.\r
+- xz decoder now can unpack random block from multi-block xz archives.\r
+ 7-Zip File Manager now can open nested multi-block xz archives \r
+ (for example, image.iso.xz) without full unpacking of xz archive.\r
+- 7-Zip now can create zip archives from stdin to stdout.\r
+- 7-Zip command line: @listfile now doesn't work after -- switch.\r
+ Use -i@listfile before -- switch instead.\r
+- The BUGs were fixed:\r
+ 7-Zip could add unrequired alternate file streams to WIM archives, \r
+ for commands that contain filename wildcards and -sns switch.\r
+ 7-Zip 17.00 beta crashed for commands that write anti-item to 7z archive.\r
+ 7-Zip 17.00 beta ignored "Use large memory pages" option.\r
