I thought we were talking about compressing swap space? That's not really DDR-anything, it's slow-as-a-dog, last resort type stuff. Depending on the compression algorithm, compression level, and a number of other factors, this could be worse for some usage cases.
I'm skeptical that this is a big win in the case of Linux OR Mac OS, given that you want to avoid heavy swap usage to begin with. Especially as cheap as RAM is...
