/dev/zram0 my system says is a swap file. It's really no big deal, but I
would rather not have one. I see the old 'mkswap' command is gone, I
look at the filesystem and see no visible swap. Is there a way to turn
this off? I really don't think my memory needs to swap out pages to the
filesystem; but then, maybe it could use it. Turning it off probably
wouldn't hurt.
zram swap is the default now. It compresses memory instead of swapping
to disk. If you aren't using it, it doesn't affect anything, but if you
do end up needing it, it's there.
