New CRAM method boosts compressed memory reads

Original: New CRAM method offers giant boost to compressed memory reads

A new Linux technique called CRAM compresses data in RAM and reportedly delivers reads up to 452 times faster than conventional compressed-memory handling. The method aims to let systems treat compressed memory as usable RAM, improving performance where memory is constrained. Developers and performance enthusiasts are weighing in on the claimed speedup and what it could mean for servers and memory-hungry workloads.

Why now: A claimed 452x speedup in memory reads is a striking performance claim that draws attention from the Linux and systems community.
