From my experience squashfs can give quite okay perf if you use the right params and compression. I'd expect one of the largest linux distos to tune those params correctly.
- justsid 6y agoIs “quite okay perf” really the goal post though? Using applications is what makes a computer useful. It’s bad enough that applications these days are terribly slow and inefficient to begin with, I don’t want even more unnecessary slow downs on top of that.
- SahAssar 6y agoI'm not advocating this usecase for squashfs, just saying that the perf I'm seeing in snaps is not necessarily what properly configured squashfs would give.

- SahAssar 6y agoThe linux distros are usually not the ones pushing Electron and this is one step lower from where a Electron app would run.
