Package: live-build
Version: 1:20170609
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
I am building somewhat larger Debian Live based systems in a tmpfs. Even
though the machines are quite powerful they become unresponsive to the
point of being completely unusable during the mksquashfs step.
Attached is a patch that fixes this problem by running mksquashfs with
"nice". I tested it on many machines for several weeks now and
everything kept running smoothly.
Cheers
Ronny
