Hi,

Here is a page related to the zram module which I would suggest you give a try:
http://www.webupd8.org/2011/10/increased-performance-in-linux-with.html

search in the page for "Fedora 15+".

Make sure there is no such module as "zsmalloc" for the time being, in the 
staging
directory of the kernel tree, because starting one version : I don't know which 
one for
now, this will be less reliable.

See information here:
http://lwn.net/Articles/477067/

As long as the xvmalloc is used it is ok to have zram in the staging directory 
: having
been using it for years as well as many other users.

This should help you have a bit more resource when you need it most at install 
time.

Regards,
Mélodie
