# XZ single core compression This test uses a build of [XZ Utils](https://github.com/tukaani-project/xz) to compress a 1080p Tech Quickie video at level 9 compression. It measures the duration in milliseconds the first five cores and then averages it for a total score. > This is test is not suitable for processors that have less than 6 primary performance cores. Running this test on a processor with less will result in including efficiency/small cores in the result, skewing the scores. ## Prerequisites - Python 3.10+ - 6+ core system ## Output report.json - `score`: the average duration in milliseconds - `version`: the version of xz utils
