Wishlist: It'd be nice if docs said something about relative speed vs /usr/bin/xz #5

Thank you for pointing this out. I have added a sentence about speed to the Godoc page. Very roughly, it is about half the speed of /usr/bin/xz, and utilizes only a single goroutine due to being a fairly direct port of the C code.

Best wishes
