Protip: Put swapfile on ramdisk for highest speed
Unironically that’s how zram works
Don’t do boy zram dirty, it has a ton of utility when you have ample spare compute and limited RAM.
Is that not how it works though? Lol
Doesn’t it compress the contents that it’s storing to help kind of get the best of both worlds?
You get faster storage because it’s in ram still, but with it being compressed there’s also “more” available?
I could be completely mistaken though
You are correct, although zram uses more cpu power since it compresses things. It’s not really an issue if you’re not using a potato :=)
even if you are using a potato it probably doesn’t have much ram so slightly slowing it to make things run smoother is a very popular choice
Today I learned!
