What you mean? how can it compress it? or what method?
When there is no driver installed, we use compression that based on
LZ...
Okay, that's what I was asking. I'm curious because during guest
installation, I assume that even if you're using QXL, you are still
stuck in VESA mode.
I'm curious if LZ on it's own is significantly different than some of
the vnc encodings. Both ZRLE and Tight have some pre-encoding
techniques that introduce a palette and in the case of Tight, also
support efficient gradient encoding. The idea is that you end up with
much more compressable data this way.
It's the sort of thing I think would be interesting to measure. I think
being able to use VNC style encodings could also be interesting for
Spice in order to improve this "legacy mode" use-case.
