A few hints:
- All sources in a tar are 10.3 GB.
- The 2.6.39.1 kernel is 73 MB as a tar.bz2 archive.
- Now it would be less, because the first kernel was smaller (just 32 MB).
- So taking the average (73+32=105/2=52.5) times 39 would be just 2GB (compressed!).
- 19,617,064,960 bytes linux-1.0-2.6.39.tar
- 11,067,473,920 bytes linux-2.6.0-2.6.39.tar
- ( 2,000,000,000 bytes linux-2.6.0-2.6.39.tar.bz) estimate
- 1,535,618,848 bytes linux-2.6.0-2.6.39.tar.xz 13.8%
With heavy, slow IO it took less than an hour to compress, and lrzip was more than twice as fast as xz.
Now that I gave you all these numbers let's see how much it really is... (make a guess an click the link)
