Scalability has been tested to 50+ TB, will eventually scale far higher. [Squashfs](https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/filesystems/squashfs.html) is a compressed read-only filesystem for Linux. It uses zlib, lz4, lzo, or xz compression to compress files, inodes and directories. Inodes in the system are very small and all blocks are packed to minimize data overhead.
