Here is a recent article I was reading on swapping
and zram in particular.  In addition to the use of
compressed ram, it contains some excellent info
about implementing swap space.

I liked this line from the article:

The ultimate purpose of swap space is to be a
small buffer — a red flag – that lets the system
administrator know when more RAM is needed
in a system.

Cheers!
