I did test an lzma compressed live image (non-functional due to no kernel support) for the games spin and found it was 10% (400 MiB) smaller than the zlib compressed version.
Isn't the basic strength of lzma a very big dictionary window? I would have said this is not easily paired to random access (squashfs). 10% (of the compressed size) looks like a very good gain.
