So a while back, I disabled compressed virtual memory:

bash-3.2# nvram boot-args
boot-args       -v -s vm_compressor=1
bash-3.2# 

I tried to reenable it (removing the vm_compressor argument). Unfortunately, 
all that did was give me a swap error as soon as physical memory filled up.

I'd like to know what I need to do to go back to compressing my virtual memory.

At the time, my reason for disabling it was that it turned my 16 GB machine 
into a 6 GB machine. The system would insist on using 10 GB for compressed 
swap, and my working set at the time -- Minecraft client, Minecraft server, 
recording software, voice chat software, etc. -- needed more memory than that.
