Yes, if you have administrator privileges and strategic planning, and if you can tolerate a read-only fs (or your fs can handle overwrites), then compression of the filesystem itself often saves more space. (Sometimes UPX still wins because of the 128KiB window in squashfs; the UPX window is often larger, and sometimes infinite.) But if you are just a lowly user, or cannot plan far enough ahead, then UPX is a good choice for saving space, and sometimes gives smaller delay at execve(). -- -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
