Ahhh, but they compress the memory! Anyone else remember Ram Doubler for pre OSX Macs?

  Oh yes. Mac OS X started doing that in Mavericks as well

    Darwin does it, NT does it, and Linux can do it (I use swap on zram, there's also zswap). Nice to see it widely (if quietly) used:)

  IBM once had a main-memory interface that did LZW compression (so compressing between L2 and main memory).
