Hello Jonathan, I was going to file a similar ITP, but then I found this one. My idea was to adapt Ubuntu's zram-config package, which already includes a systemd unit file that sets up zram, allocating totalmem/2 to it.
How are things going with your packaging effort? If you can't dedicate time on it at the moment I'll be happy to work on it. Adapting the Ubuntu package to Debian should be quite easy. Let me know. In any case I think this ITP should be merged with this RFP bug: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=648249 Regards, Paride
