I know that it is convenient to expose qcow2 images uncompressed so
users are able to upload them directly into clouds via httpd. Qcow2 is
compressed already by default (is that zlib?) so I am wondering if there
is any way of re-compressing the image with "-9" option so we are sure
the size is the best we can offer.

Currently qemu-img does not offer that. Size comparison between qcow2 vs
raw.xz shows that there are most likely some gaps we can fill in the
qcow2 size.

Just throwing in some ideas. Maybe not that relevant for this, I
apologize.
