Hi Juanito

Most ignore lz4 as it is a relatively new algorithm. I don't think it's enough to take into account lagged discussions.

Lagged. zstd surpassed xz a long time ago.

They should have joined xz when it was discussed, zstd when it was discussed, and should join lz4 now.
Discussions are slow and new algorithms are released periodically. I don't think we should argue about the old ones provided, but rather look for some reason to not use lz4.
If it's an aimless discussion, this will be just another topic forgotten in time like the others you refer to.
I'll send an email with squashfs with lz4 as the default and hope it gets accepted.

The tinycore developers are the maintainers of the squashfs-tools extensions, so it will not be accepted.
If there's an agreed change to block size or compression type it needs to follow on from testing on x86, x86_64, armv* and aarch64 and might be different on each architecture.
