Subject: FYI: trying to optimize initramfs generation in Debian
Date: Sat, 24 Aug 2024 09:35:08 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <38935123-e089-4cfc-9997-f67eaafdee17@siemens.com> (raw)

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1079509

We could also build a patched initramfs-tools, but I'm not yet sure the
gain is worth the complication.

Another, orthogonal way to optimize the generation is to provide zstd to
the image so that slower gzip can be avoided by initramfs-tools (only
recommended by initramfs-tools, not required). Still, initramfs creation
is more than compression.
