Imagine a data compressor that works with cloop, saves 3% media space (fits 60MB more uncompressed data onto a 700MB CD-ROM), is just as fast decompressing during execution, and requires a whole day on one CPU to run create_compressed_fs. How much would this help to make some particular remastering more usable (including at other media sizes: 50MB, 185MB, 210MB, etc.)?

Does this exist, or is this merely hypothetical?
