Revised speed tip for zswap (previous version was ineffective)

[John Hawkins]

Hi

I tried this on my Acer Swift, 8RAM, Linux Mint 20.3 but get this - see screenshot - in the terminal. I changed the swappiness to 25 as recommended, but  have not activated it due to the 'critical' warnings.

john@john-Swift-SF314-52G:~$ cat /sys/module/zswap/parameters/enabled
N
john@john-Swift-SF314-52G:~$ xed admin:///etc/default/grub

** (xed:3445): WARNING **: 06:05:57.153: The specified location is not mounted

As you can imagine, I'm no expert. :) This worries me, so could you please help. Thank you.

Hi John,

In spite of the grave wording of those error messages, they're actually quite innocent and normal. So you can safely ignore them.

Many thanks, Pjotr, that's put my mind at rest.
