Zram Performance Analysis

An alternative is zswap https://old.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/11dkhz7/zswap_vs_zra... which I believe, despite the name, can also compress RAM without hitting disk.
mscdex•18m ago
It's only an alternative if you have a backing swap device. zram does not have this requirement, so (aside from using no compression) it's basically the only solution for some scenarios (e.g. using entire disk(s) for ZFS).
sirfz•28m ago
a comment here about zram caught my eye a day or two ago and I've been meaning to look into it. Glad to see this post (and I'm sure many others saw the same comment and shared my obsession)
burch45•27m ago
This post’s conclusions are odd. It has a bunch of extensive benchmarks showing that zstd is by far the worst performing across every metric except a slight increase in compression ratio and then says the conclusion is zstd is the best choice. Unless I’m missing something in the data.
