I am working on a new zcat compressed access log benchmarking routine to eventually be added to my centminmodbench.sh script. If you use log analysis tools like ngxtop, then you would need to use zcat to inspect and pipe to ngxtop many gz compressed Nginx access logs using zcat. So knowing how well your server can perform for zcat operations is important

zcat is basically same as cat command just it works on gzip compressed files instead of uncompressed files...
