Hello listmates,
I am running mksquashfs trying to archive a 400GB+ directory. It has already taken about a day and the resultant archive is only about 40GB thus far and the command is not done yet. Has anyone made a squashfs that size? Is it normal for the process to take this long? If it is not - what am I doing wrong.
I am using the most basic syntax:
mksquashfs <directory name> <image name>
The process is running at 100% CPU.
Thanks for any and all help.
Boris.
