While not exactly the same, the measured increase in size by the Arch community for their packaging by moving from xz to zstd was ~0.8% (and gaining a huge reduction in CPU utilization at the decompress end). If those (approximate) numbers hold for this use case (someone would clearly have to test to confirm or refute those numbers) I would have to suggest that is likely a good tradeoff that is worth further consideration. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
