Stop using .tar.bz, maybe??

Open Artoria2e5 opened this issue 1 year ago • 10 comments

Describe the bug The current releases use CEF_ARCHIVE_FORMAT set to tarbz. This is extremely slow to decompress. Bzip2 unpacks slower than xz and does not even compress better.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to https://cef-builds.spotifycdn.com/index.html
  2. Click on a PDB download
  3. Wait
  4. Decomress
  5. WAIT, DRINK COFFEE

Expected behavior We could really use xz to get at least double the decompression speed. Or even zstd, at the cost of worse compression. These two are extremely widespread.

Screenshots

Versions (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Windows 11, but really does not matter

Additional context Python tarfile has xz support since 3.3. You don't even need to get an external program!
