Hello,
I filed another change proposal, which is related to the original one:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/OptimizeSquashFSOnDVDByRemovingEXT4FilesystemImageLayer
The new proposal does not change compression parameters of the SquashFS
image on DVD.

Hello Zbyszek,

From my perspective, the storage on the installation medium should be
efficiently used. Even though the optimization is just 50MiB, it is an

And no doubt you can find people still using 300 baud
TI Silent 700 terminals. However, the global internet
speed tests show that the numbers are much higher
on average, and we should

Most end users install the image exactly once.

Hello everyone,
Thanks for sharing your ideas and comments about this change.
Thanks to Mohan Boddu, I got RawHide DVD and netinstall images of
RawHide with the optimization features enabled. Those test composes are
available at the following locations:
Hello Kamil,

QA fedorapeople space, if needed). That would allow interested parties
to test and benchmark the experience themselves.

[[snip]]
Zstd is faster than xz at de-compression, but a much larger speed improvement
would be to parallelize and pipeline "rpm --install". This would benefit
