This laptop with 8GiB RAM is running two VMs at the same time: Windows

So this suggests another interesting question: If I have Fedora
virtual machines running on a Fedora host, and both are using zram,
could there be some negative interaction?  ie. With the pages not
being compressible twice.  I suppose (without looking at the source)
that zram will skip compressing a page if the compressed page is not
any smaller?

I considered this as well. But that would only be a concern if the live memory of the VM is getting swapped out. Is that something that could happen?
