Run lz4 compression in parallel using GNU parallel

I like compressing my SQLite DB as separate lz4 files. I use the below commands to compress them in parallel using the lz4 utility.

parallel lz4 -12 -m ::: *.db

You can install GNU parallel on Ubuntu using the below command

sudo apt install parallel

Note: Passing -m option to the lz4 utility is essential to avoid stdout outputs.
