just found hear

some mention of distri

--- Quote ---Michael Stapelberg’s excellent 2020 Arch Linux Conference talk and the installation speed achieved by distri were a great motivation boost.

Michael proposes radical ideas to speed up package installation, such as downloading and mounting ready-to-use SquashFS images.

 ::)

it appears tcl's methods/philosophy (unfortunatly) appears not well known

afew intresting things of note ( from the distri developer  Arch Linux Conference)

the lack of pkg setup scripts
 wich is afaik one way distri differs compared to core tcz pkg

and mention of methods to enshore pkg's resolve the same dep's at run time as they had at build time

and that it appears multiple pkg version are supported

---edit
wrt to the guix post subject : pkg speed
reminded me of this related forum thred  "Sugestion: XZ compression in kernel + tcz; squashfs with xz + biger block size" - http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/topic,22854.msg142815.html#msg142815
