Because file system compression requires cpu cycles (i.e. cpu power and time) and I think they are more valuable to most users than storage. So, not optimizing the packages would probably be preferable over compressing the file system. But trimmed down packages need less space but no additional cpu cycles so it's a win-win from the user's perspective. -- Sandro _______________________________________________ cloud mailing list cloud@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/cloud Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
