The Ubuntu kernels also have zswap since Saucy. It may be a simpler option, needing only a change to the kernel command-line ( add "zswap.enabled=1" ). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/38

I'd like to point out that zram is also more secure than swapping to a swap partition on the HDD; since the data never leaves memory, there's no need for cryptswap. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad

I've got a system with 16gb ram, I still use zram. In the situations I do run low on memory (which happens, I do machine learning) zram will improve performance massivly. And I have yet to see a single benchmark where zram decreases system performance at all. In fact it'd be interesting to see numb

Also note that kernel 3.8 will ship a faster lzo module, used by zram for compressing/decompressing RAM. See this commit and the others around it: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git;a=commitdiff;h=10f6781c8591fe5fe4c8c733131915e5ae057826 Take care of this if you want to

Oh, and as for Ubiquity, I've received reports that it enables zramswap on the installed system if no other swap is available to it. Perhaps that should be disabled. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpa

I believe zram-config can be shipped unconditionally. It will decrease performance on a hypothetical machine with a slow CPU (or low memory bandwidth) and a really fast storage, but I couldn't find any such devices on the consumer market. An Intel paper suggests that zramswap-like setups are benef

zram-config is in main since it exists, all thats needed is to seed it generally in the ship seed and to have some detection code in ubiquity that installs it by default in setups where it makes sense to have it (low ram) ** Also affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status:
