Hi Marc,

                          CRAMFS          SquashFS
Max File Size               16Mb               4Gb
Max Filesystem Size        256Mb              4Gb?
UID/GID                   8 bits           32 bits
Block Size                    4K       default 64k

For me, it is the file size. Squashfs is also faster,
I think.
