input accepted by "mem=" parameter. For example "compsize=48M" sets

input accepted by "mem=" parameter. For example "compsize=48M" sets
! the maximum compressed cache size to 48 megabytes. It resizes by
! itself as much as it is actually needed (ie, resizes on demand).

-
- Resize Compressed Cache On Demand
- CONFIG_COMP_DEMAND_RESIZE
-
- Select this option in case you want compressed cache to start with a
- minimum number of pages and resize on demand. It means that
- compressed cache will grow uo to its maximum size while the system
- is under memory pressure and will only start swapping out when it
- reaches that size. As soon as the reserved pages for compressed
- cache are no longer used, they are freed to the system, decreasing
- compressed cache size.
-
- The maximum size is defined by the very same kernel parameter
- "compsize=N", where N is a memory size like the input accepted by
- "mem=" parameter. For example "compsize=48M" will set the maximum
- compressed cache size to 48 megabytes.
-
- In the case this option is enabled, the user cannot any longer
- change compressed cache size via sysctl entry
- (/proc/sys/vm/comp_cache/size).
-
- If unsure, say Y here.
