Is there anything I can do to get more qubes out of my RAM, besides trial
and error with allocation values? I figure there's gotta be some daemon or
other that I never use that's eating up RAM on every instance of
fedora/debian for no good reason. Or perhaps some sort of swap
optimization such as zram or zswap. What's your favorite cure for
qubestyle creep?

zram and zswap are potentially vulnerable to timing attacks, so I
recommend avoiding them.
