Title:
  (wish request) zram-config's casper compcache script should allow
  loading zram when RAM up to 2 GB

Status in zram-config package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  the zram module of the kernel when loaded seems to me to be behaving
  well in computers having up to 2 GB RAM, and even to be very desirable
  to have, as some programs started together can reveal to be quite
  greedy, depending on the other components of the computers (cpu, FSB,
  GPU…).

  For exemple, recently a friend of mine complained that there was lag
  in Libreoffice while typing, when Firefox was also running. In the
  Ubuntu editions some need more resources than others, and while Ubuntu
  Unity is said to need (? 512MB minimum), I have seen Ubuntu Unity in a
  machine which didn't have more than 2 GB RAM and it was as much a pain
  to use as a quite fragmented Windows : this is where adding 2 GB to
  make it 4 fixed the problem.

  All experiences added bring me to request kindly that the part of the
  compcache hook zram limit in initramfs-tools be raised to 2 GB. This
  would be very nice, and useful.

  I enclose a patch.

  Best regards,
  Mélodie
