I also have a "threadzip" script, because gzip is invariably the bottleneck in the data stream. Utilize those extra cores!!! ;-)
Gzip can be a bit slow. Luckily there is 'lzop' which is quite a lot more CPU efficient on i386 and AMD64, and even on SPARC. If the compressor is able to keep up with the network and disk, then it is fast enough. See "http://www.lzop.org/";.
