Zswap-cli is a command-line tool to control the zswap kernel module options on the fly.
Zswap is a compressed cache for swap pages. It takes pages that are in the process of being swapped out to disk and tries to compress them into a RAM-based memory pool with dynamic allocation.
It trades CPU cycles for a significant performance boost since reading from a compressed cache is much faster than reading from a swap device.
Currently supported features:
- CLI, environment variables and configuration files support.
- Optional systemd integration.
- Usage statistics and debug information support.
- Does not require a reboot.
