	  If trimming is disabled, the excess is kept, but not used, which for

	  Trimming can be dynamically controlled through a sysctl option

	  A lightweight compressed cache for swap pages.  It takes
	  pages that are in the process of being swapped out and attempts to
	  compress them into a dynamically allocated RAM-based memory pool.
	  This can result in a significant I/O reduction on swap device and,
	  in the case where decompressing from RAM is faster that swap device
	  reads, can also improve workload performance.

	  This is marked experimental because it is a new feature (as of
	  v3.11) that interacts heavily with memory reclaim.  While these
	  interactions don't cause any known issues on simple memory setups,
	  they have not be fully explored on the large set of potential

	  zsmalloc is a slab-based memory allocator designed to store
	  compressed RAM pages.  zsmalloc uses virtual memory mapping
	  in order to reduce fragmentation.  However, this results in a
	  non-standard allocator interface where a handle, not a pointer, is
	  returned by an alloc().  This handle must be mapped in order to
	  access the allocated space.

	  mapping rather than copying for object mapping.
