# When used with ZRAM, it is better to prefer page out only anonymous pages, # because it ensures that they do not go out of memory, but will be just # compressed. If we do frequent flushing of file pages, that increases the # percentage of page cache misses, which in the long term gives additional # cycles to re-read the same data from disk that was previously in page cache. # This is the reason why it is recommended to use high values from 100 to keep # the page cache as hermetic as possible, because otherwise it is "expensive" # to read data from disk again. At the same time, uncompressing pages from ZRAM # is not as expensive and is usually very fast on modern CPUs. # # Also it's better to disable Zswap, as this may prevent ZRAM from working # properly or keeping a proper count of compressed pages via zramctl.
