Package: debhelper Version: 10.2.5 Severity: normal Following up on an observation I made in #868674:
udebs are currently compressed with "xz -1 -extreme", while normal packages are compressed with "xz -6". "xz -1" requires 2 MiB memory for decompression and "xz -6" requires 9 MiB memory for decompression. Is there any situation left where these 7 MiB difference still matter? Is there is no situation left where 9 MiB memory usage for decompression are a problem, then "xz -6 -extreme" would be a better choice.
