Which swap is better (ZRAM, swap partition or swap file)?

Question

ubuntu

There are 4 gigabytes of memory, ssd screw, 2 cores. What swap method is the best at the moment?

Answer 1

depending on the quality and quantity of data with which you work most often
if the swap is used often and a lot, then it is better to put it on the partition
if the swap is used infrequently but a lot, then it is better to use the swap file
if the swap is used a little, then you can get by with zram
if the swap is used relatively much but the data is well compressed, here you can also get by with zram
, you can, in principle, use a combined approach, for example, use zram and a swap file for which compression is also used.
