Thank you Ingemar, I'll try doing a xz compressed zImage instead of compressed uImage wich does not seem to be supported by u-boot. I was using vmlinuz as base for uImage so it should not already be compressed?by ricke - uBoot

What compression does u-boot 2013.11 support for uImage if any?, i tried lzma2 and it didn't boot.by ricke - uBoot

Well, i don't know if i would call it great performance. It depends on your cpu/ram and workload and alot of other things, if your using swap on slow flash media with a device that has low ram and is expected to swap then yes i would call ZRAM a great improvment as ram even compressed is alot faster.by ricke - Debian
Is it possible to add ZRAM module to next kernel release, iv used it in arch arm on low memory devices. Otherwise kernel is working great on my goflex home.by ricke - Debian
