# Memory 5120 MB = 2048 (for us) + 3072 (for run_archiso)
# SMP 8 instead of 2 makes mkarchiso much faster; it takes only 2m2s instead of 5m39s for baseline ISO,
# due to the parallel mksquashfs.  Not using xz but default gzip in mkinitcpio.conf saves another 30s,
# so baseline ISO now builds in ca. 100s.
