Official Zram Support?

[zerozawa]

hello everyone, i have use truenas for months in vm and physical machine.
Truenas has strict requirement of ram, however zram can extend usable ram easily without too much speed loss.

now i turn on zram by init script because it has minimize impact on operating system, but if zram has official support, many newbies will also benefit.

No, that's not a meaningful fix for anything. ZFS' ARC is already compressed, and the performance penalty for actual code that's being executed is likely to quickly drive you insane.

OK, it seems that I have to learn more. Thank you.
