Description

Because we set _binary_payload on RPM packages, we override the selection of compression algorithm defaults; in this case, we specifically choose a non-threaded compression mode. Unfortunately, this means that compression with any compression algorithm other than GZip can take a very long time. Debian packages, on the other hand, use threaded compression modes by default.

This change forces _binary_payload to use threaded compression modes when selecting an algorithm and compression level.
