Zram was a game changer on my shitty laptop

Ich habe gerade den Server getestet und konnte von außen via GeForce Now darauf zugreifen 👍 Zur Sicherheit habe ich #zram aktiviert, um den Arbeitsspeicher zu komprimieren. Das soll die Performance verbessern, da der Server nur 8 GB RAM hat. 12 GB wären optimal.

I personally have also installed Coolify on it. At first, I had Uptime Kuma installed manually but figured “why not use Coolify here as well…”.

I can still recommend enabling #zram to help a bit with the memory consumption.

Surviving The RAM Price Squeeze With Linux In-Kernel Memory Compression You’ve probably heard — we’re currently experiencing very high RAM prices due mostly to increased demand from AI data centers. If you’ve been priced out of new RAM you are going to want to get as much value out of the RAM you already have as possible, and that’s where today’s hack comes in: if you’re on a Debian system read about ZRam for how to install and configure `zram-tools` to enable and manage the Linux kernel facilities that enable compressed RAM by integrating with the swap-enabled virtual memory system. We’ve seen it done with the Raspberry Pi, and the concept is the same. Ubuntu users should check out systemd-zram-generator instead, and be aware that zram might already be installed and configured by default on your Ubuntu Desktop system. If you’re interested in the history of in-kernel memory compression LWN.net has an old article covering the technology as it was gestating back in 2013: In-kernel Memory Compression. For those trying to get a grip on what has happened with RAM prices in recent history, a good place to track memory prices is memory.net and if you swing by you can see that a lot of RAM has gone up as much as four times in the last three or four months. If you have any tips or hacks for memory compression on other platforms we would love to hear from you in the comments section!

Blabla Linux Zram : Pourquoi ce « turbo » pour la RAM n’est pas activé par défaut sous Linux ? Pourquoi Zram n’est-il pas activé par défaut sous Linux ? Découvrez les compromis CPU et les raisons techniques. Indispensable pour booster les PC reconditionnés (Debian, Ubuntu, Mint).

Zram est un turbo RAM pour Linux. Pourquoi n'est-il PAS par défaut sur Debian/Ubuntu/Mint ? 🤔

La réponse est technique (compromis CPU vs. performance). Je vous explique pourquoi Zram est VITAL pour le reconditionnement !

I was wrong! zswap IS better than zram Rule of thumb / TL;DR:If your system only uses swap occasionally and keeping swap demand within ~20–30% of your physical RAM as zram is enough, ZRAM is

Very good write up on #zswap and #zram. These things have such good improvements in general.

Not always is more ram feasible either. 😅 Looking at you gddr5 😒

Fedora vs Windows 11: что лучше для SSD?

Fedora:

✅ ZRAM - сжатие подкачки в памяти
✅ Btrfs - сжатие данных на лету
✅ Минимум фоновых процессов
✅ Меньше места на диске после установки

bin ja gespannt wie gut oder schlecht das mit der kompression funktioniert
