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. -- Later, Lukas "lzap" Zapletal irc: lzap #theforeman -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
