If it could make it fly, why not do it? I can see difference on my friend's N810.

Hi Locusf,
Thanks for building this! I still remember memory compressors in the windows 95 world when computers had 16 MB RAM

I have caught a little harmless bug in the init.d script:
If you run "ramzez-init start" having no gconf value set, it will throw a "sh : : unknown operand" error message.
Bugfix: in line 22 change single quotes to double quotes and put $DISKSIZE_KB between double quotes:
if [[ "$DISKSIZE_KB" != "" ]]; then

I've got 50% on my n810 without any problems.
The ramzswap disksize is the size of the uncompressed data it can hold, in practice, I have found it uses about 1/3 of real memory.

Done. Proposed patch attached.

I'd really like to see ramzswap on the n900. Maybe it could help the laggy openoffice.org. I'm willing to test it and get timings if you can do the modules

Ok, doing them today. I actually have one module built but I need to fix the damn bug in the init-script and package it. I'll put it to extras-devel

The only way to find how ram is used by ramzez is to see /proc/meminfo. The command free saws wrong values

Thats true, but the new version, available today, will have the rzscontrol tool which shows accurate statistics.
