Indeed this is a sensible option and should only affect speed at creation time only (the default mode is to compress using the default algorithm no matter if it actually increases data). Anyway if you are really concerned about space check the jffs2 with lzma: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.embedded.openwrt.devel/2890/focus=2892 It gives a 10% size decrease comparing to jffs2 with zlib, making squashfs obsolete. regards, Nikos _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
