>just use zram bro
>>
>>107609958
Is there even a point in ZRAM with NVMe SSDs?
>>
>>107610353
Zram makes more sense on basic computers with 4GB or 8GB RAM and all you do is browse the web.
Web Browser tabs are highly compressible, my 4GB Chromebook regularly uses up to 9GB RAM without killing off tabs and ChromeOS has no disk swap function.
If you got a decent PC, zswap is a much better solution.
>>
>>107610407
Zram is still just swap though and zswap is even more useless IMO with modern fast SSDs.
>>
>>107610407
why does zram work better for low ram shitboxes? what if you run out of compressable space watching videos or whatever? i remember looking into zram vs zswap a while ago and thinking zswap was the much more sane solution, but maybe i was wrong
>>
>>107609958
This, but for real. I use usually 10-16GB of zram with a compression ratio of about 4, otherwise my 8GB laptop would be pretty useless by now
>>
>>107610537
Zram exists entirely within RAM, while zswap is basically the best of both worlds, compression in RAM and compressed swap.
>>
>>107610812
But it's still swap, not actual memory compression.

You vill use ze ram
>>
>>107610832
Not him but doesn't zswap compress the RAM too?
>>
>>107610909
It's only for swapped pages.
