Is there a way to merge the deltas without the original squashfs? how
|
| 8 |
fast is the delta generation? It could be done on the server side on the
|
| 9 |
fly and cached.
|
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
Or we provide a set of 16,8,4,2,1 day deltas, then
|
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
16d: 1 piece needed
|
| 14 |
8d: 2 needed
|
| 15 |
4d: 4 needed
|
| 16 |
2d: 8 needed
|
| 17 |
1d: 16 needed
|
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
The total of 31 pieces will cover a month (31 days) with at most 5
|
| 20 |
deltas to be downloaded.
|
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
e.g. If the system is 19 days old, then we download a 1d, 2d, and 16d.
