Is this method is better or using a module is better??? If there is any change in execution time I dont have any objection. My main concern is memory.

    Using this method, your program will read line-by-line from what the gzip program outputs. Maybe you can measure the differences in RAM usage if you decompress data yourself and if you let gzip decompress data.
