I'm guilty and I have been busy by other stuff. Sorry for that. Fortunately, I discussed this issue with Hugh in this Linuxcon for a long time(Thanks Hugh!) he felt zram's block device abstraction is better design rather than frontswap backend stuff although it's a question where we put zsmalloc. I will CC Hugh because many of things is related to swap subsystem and his opinion is really important. And I discussed it with Rik and he feel positive about zram.
To clarify that, I agree with Minchan that there are certain workloads where zram is probably more appropriate than zswap. For most of the workloads that I am interested in, zswap will be more interesting, but zram seems to have its own niche, and I certainly do not want to hold back the embedded folks... -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
