[Bug 555073] Re: mksquashfs no compression flags

 

squasfs is really optimized and fast, your bottleneck in terms of
booting speed are:

1. the medium (CD/DVD/USB)
2. the booting scripts

1. can't be fixed.

2. will get better and better once we use live-config (for the release
after gazpacho)

Title:
  mksquashfs no compression flags

Status in bouillon cube:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  If possible, help make-live-device script avoid the use of compression
  _if_ the destination device has enough space to hold the system
  uncompressed:

  the flags to the mksquashfs command, for a non compressed fs will be:
  -noI -noD -noF

  this will perhaps improve the boot speed process, of course it needs
  to be properly benchmarked but in theory it should help.
