zswap vs zram
Would be nice to get a description of exactly how zswap differs from zram in the article somewhere. 72.129.92.207 (talk) 06:29, 8 March 2014 (UTC)


 * Basically, the difference is that zswap serves as a compressed cache for the usual swap backends, while zram is the compressed swap backend (a compressed block device using RAM to store data). That's a good suggestion, will try to incorporate it into the article. &mdash; Dsimic (talk | contribs) 06:34, 8 March 2014 (UTC)

Just a heads up, linux now supports any of zbud, z3fold, and zsmalloc as backing for zswap Shentino (talk) 05:59, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
