Starting uc20 in a virsh domain, whilst controlling for peak memory
usage, and modifying command line to boot to "rdinit=/bin/sh" => meaning
boot to unpacked initrd and start busybox shell without doing anything
else.

The rss memory achieved to get to that point was 744684, out of 2033104
available (i'm not sure which units virsh is using here, but it is
~740MB out of 2048MB).

Note on any other platform or mode, we do not loop mount xz compressed
snap. And we have stopped using lzma/xz for kernel image or modules
compression throughout Ubuntu.

Next steps is to try booting with kernel.snap without compression, or
unpacked.
