[systemd-devel] Does systemd compression makes use of multi core

Hi,

We are using systemd version 229.  Our processor is x86 octa core.
I have configured systemd coredump (coredump.conf) for storage:external and
compression:yes.

One of our daemon consumes lots of ram memory (Around 10Gb).  When it got
crashed, systemd-coredump utility took almost three hours( I have disabled
the resource limitation) to save the compressed coredump.  It is
compressing to xz format.

How could i improve this time taken for compression.  Does systemd coredump
compression utility makes use of the octa core? or does it uses only a
single core?  Is there any other way to handle this case better?
