Several Python modules are available to directly handle different file compression formats:

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/dtrx/7.1
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/patool

In addition, there are standard Python modules for .gzip (zlib) and .bz2 (bz2) formats.

This could be an important new feature to get rid of the original subprocess.Popen call, creating a new subprocess to forward output stream data from dump files.
