 pip install dissect.squashfs

-This module is also automatically installed if you install the `dissect` package.
+This project decompresses lzo and lz4 compressed file systems and can use the faster, native (C-based) lz4 and lzo
+implementations when installed, instead of the slower pure Python implementation provided by `dissect.util`. To use
+these faster implementations, install the package with the lzo and lz4 extras:
+
+```bash
+pip install "dissect.squashfs[lz4,lzo]"
+```
+
+Unfortunately there is no binary python-lzo wheel for PyPy installations on Windows, so it won't be installed there
+
+This module including the lz4 and lzo extras is also automatically installed if you install the `dissect` package.
