Any change we make at FreeBSD may or may not cause problems on old hardware and/or other architectures like ARM. It's typically a case of trial and error to see what happens. In fact, I think that for embedded systems, using xz compression would even be better. Many of those systems are often more storage space constrained than CPU constrained (e.g. a 200 MHz wireless device with only 8 MB of flash). I think it's a pity the change has been reverted without bringing any hard data to the table. -- Ed Schouten <e...@80386.nl> _______________________________________________ svn-src-head@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-head To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-head-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
