+It might be useful to use `zram` in Tails.
+
+[[!toc levels=2]]
+
+# Rationale
+
+`zram` is a kernel module that makes it possible to use some amount of
+RAM as compressed swap. This should allow using a bit more RAM than
+what's really available.
+
+# Roadmap
+
+We should:
+
+1. Wait for details from Daniel Baumann about [his testing
+   report](https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2012/01/msg00224.html)
+   ("i've tested it quite a bit with the idea of enabling it
+   automatically on debian-live systems if the machine as not
+   a certain amount of physical ram available. had only bad
+   experiences with it, so far (worse than without it)").
+   Emailed the debian-live ML on April 7th. [[!tag todo/wait]]
+1. [[!taglink todo/test]] zram and evaluate:
+   * what actual improvements it provides, especially on low-memory systems
+   * what the performance cost is, if any.
