The "free -m" result is inaccurate because it caculted global systemd
free memory instead of process that used zram device.
We should use mm_stat as Documentation/admin-guide/blockdev/zram.rst wrote:
File /sys/block/zram<id>/mm_stat
The mm_stat file represents the device's mm statistics. It consists of a
single
line of text and contains the following stats separated by whitespace:
================
=============================================================
orig_data_size uncompressed size of data stored in this disk.
Unit: bytes
compr_data_size compressed size of data stored in this disk
mem_used_total the amount of memory allocated for this disk. This
includes allocator fragmentation and metadata
