    "Description": "Hello,\n\nI think I have found a malfunctioning behavior of the libary when compressing certain files.\n\nThis is my Code:\n\n```\n        static void Main(string[] args)\n        {\n            Thread thread = new Thread(Compress);\n            thread.Start();\n            Console.ReadLine();\n        }\n\n        static void Compress()\n        {\n            using (ZipFile zip = new ZipFile())\n            {\n                zip.CompressionMethod = CompressionMethod.None;\n                zip.AddDirectory(@\"C:\\Users\\Developer\\Desktop\\ziptest\");\n                zip.Save(@\"C:\\Users\\Developer\\Desktop\\zipfile.zip\");\n            }\n\n            Console.WriteLine(\"Finished.\");\n        }\n```\n\nAnd in the Directory \"C:\\Users\\Developer\\Desktop\\ziptest\" I have four text files with everyone of them containing just the letters \"ab\" which are repeated many times, so that each of the files is exactly 1024 kilobytes in size.\n\nI attached the files in a zip to this question.\n\n___When Running the code you can see above then, the compression stops at some point (no cpu usage) and the Save() function is never left so that the below printed text \"Finished\" is never shown and the creation of the archive is never finished.\n___\nI a\n\nDid I do something wrong?\n\nNote: This is done in a virtual machine with only windows 7 professional x64 and Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate installed on it.\n\nGreetings,\n\nRavior",

If so, then \"zip.ParallelDeflateThreshold = -1\" can be the work-around. I also notice that patch 14368 claims to fix the problem.\n",
