Dmitry, we already use lrzuntar in deploying Docker containers. Use a lower
compression ratio and it will decompress faster on virtual envs and it
takes under two mins on my virtual env.

Compress:
https://github.com/stackforge/fuel-main/blob/master/docker/module.mk#L27

Decompress:
https://github.com/stackforge/fuel-main/blob/master/iso/bootstrap_admin_node.docker.sh#L63
