True, from the page:

It is still possible to save 200-300K on a 1MB file (UPX has better compression than jffs2), but the CPU/RAM cost of UPX may outweigh the benefit.
I knew that before using UPX and I decided to test and I was pretty happy with the result, CPU usage is high when starting the app but in a few seconds into the video (which you can't even notice any stuttering at the start of the video), it calms down.

Plus I'm always untarring compressed bz2's from my rootfs onto my rootfs

Arrgh! I thought you downloaded it, it's been on there a few days! I had a cleanout yesterday >.<.

I'll recompile it again in a few days, I'm going to be busy now
