The article discusses the performance analysis of the Zram kernel module, which utilizes compressed virtual memory to enhance memory management. It compares various compression algorithms, such as LZO, LZO-RLE, LZ4, and ZSTD, focusing on metrics like compression time, throughput, and latency to identify the optimal choice for system performance. The evaluation concludes that LZ4 with a specific page cluster setting offers the best performance balance.
