uncompress kernel modules #470

Open cgwalters opened 7 years ago

cgwalters commented 7 years ago

Fedora started compressing kernel modules, but this defeats static deltas. We should just undo this for now, since I think network bandwidth is more important than disk footprint in general.

One thing that would be interesting to investigate would be direct ostree support for compression - a lot of userspace is "cold" (classic examples being man pages, kernel modules are usually cold too).

Please don't do that without ability to save current behavior. I'm use small USB flash drive to hold system and in my case network bandwidth unlimited,but HDD space are more important.
