Hi,


We have found that we can attain a better boot time by increasing 
SQUASHFS_CACHED_BLKS from 8 to 11. We also noticed that you made a 
special config option for allow people to configure fragment cache size 
(i.e. SQUASHFS_FRAGMENT_CACHE_SIZE).


Is there anything unsafe about altering the value of SQUASHFS_CACHED_BLKS ?


Would you be open to accepting a patch to add a config option for this 
similar to the pre-existing SQUASHFS_FRAGMENT_CACHE_SIZE ?


Thanks,

Daniel
