+ Creates virtual block devices called /dev/zramX (X = 0, 1, ...).
+ Pages written to these disks are compressed and stored in memory
+ itself. These disks allow very fast I/O and compression provides
+ good amounts of memory savings.
+
+ It has several use cases, for example: /tmp storage, use as swap
+ disks and maybe many more.

+ help
+ Enable statistics collection for compressed RAM devices. Statistics
+ are exported through ioctl interface, so you have to use zramconfig
+ program to get them. This adds only a minimal overhead.
+
+ If unsure, say Y.
