For booting over a metered network connection, it's not the size of the remote image that matters but how much of it is transferred.
Negative - it depends on your mechanism of transfer (in other words, implementation). Only if you have block-based transfer [...]
Otherwise, everything counts. Like when yast2 loads the 6-file-comprising rescue image.
If somebody chooses to download the full image at every boot then either they are not aware of the possibility of block-based transfer or the costs of the network connection do not hurt enough to re-think the implementation. Re-reading Alberto's messages, however, he seems to have sufficient local storage for both py and pyc files. @Alberto: What specific practical problem are you trying to solve by reducing the size of python modules? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
