Oof!

One 8G VM , and how many FF tabs? What VM guest?

You can certainly experiment with a custom zram-generator.conf and xhange
the limit to 16G. You'll get an 8G zram device in this case, if you make no
other changes to the configuration.

I'm curious at what minimum zram allocation this problem doesn't happen.
6G, 8G, 10G?
