One question, Tomasz: did you use pbzip2 to compress the file? 

If so, then we can decompress the 280GB file with pbzip2 more efficiently (since it compresses the data in individual chunks that can be sent to different cores/CPUs). Otherwise, plain bzip2 is preferred.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Felipe.
