Title:
  zswap is not enabled

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in “linux” source package in Saucy:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Please enable ZSWAP in Saucy's kernel config.
  In runtime, module is not enabled by default so there no risk of regressions.

  ZSWAP finally merged in Linux 3.11.
  ZSWAP should replace previous solutions as ramzswap and zram and should provide a solution for SSD based or/and low RAM machines.
