To tackle the #RAM issue i keep having on #Linux, I'm giving #zram another try :)) except this time, I'm adding that while retaining my existing swapfile, and I'm also disabling #zswap (as I have before). will see how it goes

    @irfan@sakurajima.social I used to use zram+swapfile with Fedora Linux. In my experience, using zram+swapfile together has a negative impact on performance compared to using zram alone, especially when there’s memory pressure. Not a sudden freeze, but more of a slow, steady decline.
