while minimizing total RAM across the cluster. RAMster, like

the compressed pages to another node in the RAMster cluster.

+ help
+ Zcache caches compressed swap pages (and other data) in RAM which
+ often improves performance by avoiding I/O's due to swapping.
+ In some workloads with very long-lived large processes, it can
+ instead reduce performance. Writeback decompresses zcache-compressed
+ pages (in LRU order) when under memory pressure and writes them to
+ the backing swap disk to ameliorate this problem. Policy driving
+ writeback is still under development.
