Hi,

regarding 2: do you have a decent amount of RAM? If you worry about flash but not about RAM maybe this could work:

  • store compressed files in flash

  • reserve a region in RAM for the zipfs filesystem

  • uncompress the compressed data and copy it to the RAM at boot time

  • set ro_zipfs base and offset in RAM
