Hi, do you think it makes sense for the kernel-source package to switch to the xz compressed tarballs provided by kernel.org? Some scientific research: $ ls -1sh linux-3.0.tar.* 74M linux-3.0.tar.bz2 61M linux-3.0.tar.xz $ time -p bzcat linux-3.0.tar.bz2 >/dev/null real 10.63 user 10.57 sys 0.05 $ time -p xzcat linux-3.0.tar.xz >/dev/null real 5.74 user 5.50 sys 0.21 Thoughts?
