I have to correct myself: Fedora 9 was not where xz was introduced. The xz
compression was introduced in Fedora 15. At that point, the x86_64 KDE Spin
was 725614592 bytes (with more applications on it than in Fedora 9), and
that was also the size in Fedora 17 in May 2012.

So, in only 11 years, the live image size has grown by a factor of almost
exactly 3⅓ (the exact ratio starts with: 3.3329…)!
