You don't agree? Fine.
Not just me but the ARC taxonomy of most of these shell scripts sets that expectation.
How much is the cost? How many kb would be freed? Just add a single additional driver module (depending on file size) all the gain or a multiple of it is away in one step.
The point is you get to add that driver now where you wouldn't before.
Also: In case of the existing clofi compression livemedia approach currently in use since Moinak developed it, the compression is equal or higher (depending on algo settings used for compression). And even the layout of the iso9660 fs can be optimized for highest throughput. Performance is quite good.
I'm not saying don't do that, in saying that the suggestion of using shcomp may help as well.
And you might not imagine, how important it can be to have the scripts in /lib/svc/method be present in plain text, especially if "something" goes wrong.
You still have the source code available, it is open source after all. Yes I know that means you can't easily tweak it but you couldn't do that for all methods anyway since some services methods are binaries not scripts in /lib/svc/method.
