I thought SanDisk had a product out. I know of some products will be out
soon, but that's under NDA so I can't be more specific.

I suppose any gains would depend on how sparse /compressible
the data you are holding in RAM is.

If you're on an eternal quest for more RAM, have you looked at
using an NVMe SSD device, or an UltraDIMM? They may not perform as
fast as RAM, but you can get a lot more space for less money, so
the capacity may make up for the shortfall in performance.
