Summary0000461: Smaller rockyou.txt.gz file
Description

This is one I made which is almost 10 megabytes smaller. Should help save some space.

On a slightly difference note, is there any point in keeping rockyou.txt compressed? AFAIK, Kali uses SquashFS which uses LZMA. LZMA is much better than deflate.

I'm a huge fan of wordlists but we won't be adding any new ones to Kali because we want to keep the on-disk install size small. It's for that same reason that we keep rockyou compressed.

Thanks for the submission.
