Pirat_Nation 🔴(@Pirat_Nation):The Steam Deck could get a serious memory boost from new Linux tech called CRAM thanks to Linux developers CRAM compresses data directly in RAM instead of relying on traditional ZRAM. In testing, it was up to 452x faster than ZRAM for memory reads, although the gains are much smaller with heavy writes. The boost is much smaller with write-heavy workloads, but one test with 20% writes still showed a 5.4x speedup.
