I also feel it faster (or, at least, not slower) with reiserfs, but going from ~300 MB to 79. Not sure if it would benefit from putting squashed image in a different filesystem (it was placed in /root, that is ext4 in my case). Maybe it would be faster if generated image was put in /var/tmp/portage (that is tmpfs in my case) But I am testing it with plain squashfs (without write support)
