Package: logrotate
Version: 3.11.0-0.1
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

I think it would be a good idea to replace gzip with lzip for compressing logs. 
Its compressing and decompressing can be parallelized, unlike gzip, resulting 
in faster compression and decompression. "lzip -0" is the same as "gzip".
