Compression now utlilizes 24 CPU cores with pigz instead of single-threaded gzip, resulting in drastically faster compression.
Example: 180GB thin-provisioned disk with ~22GB used, compressed to ~19 GB
Successfully tested on ESXi-version 6.5.0, including successful restore.
To utilize a different number of cores (in this commit: 24 cores) change "-p 24" on line 1320 of ghettoVCB.sh.
Todo: make the # of cores configurable via configfile
