I have been setting up Zram, Swap, Swappiness and EasyOOM daemon on 16gb ram boxes, or lower. Someone asked me about 32gb of ram, or more, and I’m unsure. Wondering if others have experimented with this!

Thanks!
It’s shit info. zram is actually better, more so with high ram size+high usage situations.
My RAM only gets full with dds textures from poorly implemented mod systems. That’s pretty much incompressible.
Anything you’d like to dispute specifically or we should just take your “it’s shit” over a detailed explanation?
Shit info from a kernel dev who works on the memory management subsystem?
