The memory usage of B<xz> varies from a few hundred kilobytes to several gigabytes depending on the compression settings. The settings used when compressing a file determine the memory requirements of the decompressor. Typically the decompressor needs 5\ % to 20\ % of the amount of memory that the compressor needed when creating the file. For example, decompressing a file created with B<xz -9> currently requires 65\ MiB of memory. Still, it is possible to have B<.xz> files that require several gigabytes of memory to decompress.
