     You think you're joking, @eniac. There was actually this software package called "Ram Doubler"...: http://status.hackerposse.com/url/2006

     RAM Doubler seems to have worked similarly to Linux's #overcommit feature... but with out an #OOM handler....

     Apparently #Linux now has this thing called #zRAM, also: http://status.hackerposse.com/url/4199

     @rozzin Been using it since it was known as #compcache. It seems very stable and has the added benefit of compressed swap pages.

     @rozzin I think Connectix RAM Doubler did something similar to zram/compcache. There was also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SoftRAM which didn't actually work, as opposed to its competitor.
