How big is the slowdown, and are you sure it's because of squashfs and
not some other thing?
Can you post some logfiles from the older version that you're using
comparing squashfs and ubifs?

2017-12-14 Thread Mauro Mozzarelli

Please can we have an option to build ubifs firmware?

I noticed a considerable slow down especially at boot time using 
squashfs firmware on BT Home Hub 5A.



Thank you.

I am building for xrx200 lantiq (BT Home Hub 5). With previous LEDE 
builds I used to get both ubifs and squashfs firmware versions built.


Now I get only squashfs. Is there a new configuration parameter to 
get ubifs built or has it been removed?

Fwiw, as a general principle, I don't think it is entirely unreasonable
to expect some kind of public discussion before removing features, which
would give people a chance to make a case for keeping it.

Maybe that happened, I wasn't paying attention (and don't particularly
care) in this case.
