What'd be great is if devs went to lzma2 strictly. XZ has awesome  
compression they can take the time to compress and the decompression  
time is fast.

gz isn't that great, bz2 is okay, lzma2 is best as far as my  
experience goes.

Could use gcc 4.8.2, too.  And binutils 2.23.whateverisnext.

Sincerely,

William Harrington
