BTW, I'm curious. Have you experimented with increasing the pool size?
That 20% number is plenty for our use cases, but maybe yours need a
different cap?

Also, have you experimented with the dynamic zswap shrinker? :) I'm
actually curious how it works out in the small machine regime, with
whatever workload you are running.

But yeah, I'd imagine either way zswap would be better than zram for
this particular scenario, as long as you have a swapfile, some
proportion of your anonymous memory cold, and/or can tolerate a
certain amount of latency.
