Public bug reported:
the zram module of the kernel when loaded seems to me to be behaving
well in computers having up to 2 GB RAM, and even to be very desirable
to have, as some programs started together can reveal to be quite
greedy, depending on the other components of the computers (cpu, FSB,
GPU…).
For exemple, recently a friend of mine complained that there was lag in
Libreoffice while typing, when Firefox was also running. In the Ubuntu
editions some need more resources than others, and while Ubuntu Unity is
said to need (? 512MB minimum), I have seen Ubuntu Unity in a machine
which didn't have more than 2 GB RAM and it was as much a pain to use as
a quite fragmented Windows : this is where adding 2 GB to make it 4
fixed the problem.
All experiences added bring me to request kindly that the part of the
compcache hook zram limit in initramfs-tools be raised to 2 GB. This
would be very nice, and useful.
I enclose a patch.
Best regards,
Mélodie
